The Mira HP from Coherent, Inc. is the world's first ultrafast oscillator to deliver more than 3 watts of output power.
Designed to be pumped by the Coherent V18 Verdi â„¢ laser, this new ultrafast laser delivers higher power across the entire Ti:sapphire tuning curve, with dramatic increases toward the edges at 'difficult' wavelengths. The increase in output power is even more significant when the Mira HP is used to pump a synchronous OPO to obtain widely tunable visible and infrared wavelengths.
Mira HP is the latest member of the Mira family of award-winning ultrafast titanium:sapphire oscillators. These versatile lasers combine high reliability and smart, automated operation with an open architecture. This configuration is ideal for research applications, because it enables the laser performance to be easily optimized for the needs of specific applications. The new Mira HP is also available with a full selection of useful accessories and options.
Applications for the Mira HP span research in cell biology, non-linear optics, and high-energy physics. Specific applications include nanosurgery on living cells, STED and MPE microscopy, high harmonic generation, deep tissue imaging, and direct generation of X-rays.
