The complete solution: taccor comb
From: Laser Quantum Ltd.
A complete frequency comb solution is now available from Laser Quantum: the taccor comb, an extension to the existing successful range of 1 GHz taccor lasers. The comb offers high repetition rate enabling generation of significantly more supercontinuum average power and leading to a significantly more enhanced SNR for heterodyne beat measurements, or direct frequency comb spectroscopy applications. An exceptionally powerful tool for metrology due to its high mode spacing.
