Compact Size, Limitless Possibilities
Avantes’ NEXOS™ is a lightweight, and powerful spectrometer optimized to deliver high-end performance for spectroscopy integration. The spectrometer offers high-speed performance, with integration times of up to 9 μs, minimal stray light as low as 0.1%, and a strong signal-to-noise ratio of 375:1.
The NEXOS™ is compatible with Avantes light sources, accessories, and AvaSoft software, enabling users to customize their setups to suit their measurement requirements.
This powerful and versatile spectrometer is available with USB2 communication. Other communication protocols (e.g., RS232/SPI) optimized for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) applications are also available. This device can be customized to your needs using six different slit sizes and more than 15 types of gratings. The replaceable slit option is standard for Non-OEM.
This spectroscopy instrument is highly suitable for OEM applications and can be combined with our Software Development Kits (AvaSoft). Thanks to the automation of our manufacturing process, Avantes can produce high volumes of the NEXOS™ spectrometer more efficiently and faster with very high accuracy and reproducibility.
The MNx series are our most compact microchip lasers. The MNE is an eye safe laser which integrates the pump diode and the micro-cavity in a 10 cm long package. It produces more than 1 kW of peak power in a few nanoseconds pulse duration.
NEW 1064nm Powerchip Laser, triggerable up to 5 kHz
The PNP-M05550 PowerChip™ passively Q-switched microchip laser is the newest addition of the Powerchip series at 1064nm. With a pulse frequency of 5 kHz, a pulse duration kept under 600 ps and an excellent beam quality, this laser inherits an outstanding reliability and draws from the experience gathered from the wide OEM reach won by Powerchip lasers.
It features a completely integrated platform which includes the laser head, power supply and air cooling in a compact, rugged, and turnkey package.
NEW Triggered Short Pulse Laser, down to 300ps pulse width
The STP-40K is a triggered Microchip Series laser. It produces 1064nm pulses which are directly generated from the diode pumped passively Q-switched Nd:YAG microchip engine. The pulse duration can go down to 300ps.
Microchip lasers are also easy to operate and service; controllers can be used with every laser head model and swapped within minutes while keeping constant operating parameters.
The 2µm pulsed source reaches a pulse energy as high as270µJ, combining spectral tunability from 1.94 to 1.96 µm with a single longitudinal mode (SLM) output upon request.
This 2µm laser operates at a repetition rate up to 5kHz and a few tens of ns pulse duration.
Its main applications include LIDAR, detection of atmospheric gases and molecules, medical and surgical procedures, processing of plastics, and many others.
The Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO) pulsed source combines a wide spectral tunability, from 7.5 to 13µm (or 3 to 5µm upon request), with a very narrow linewidth, down to 100MHz.
With the optional Optical Parametric Amplifier (OPA) stage, the source reaches a peak power as high as 100W with an energy of 4µJ per pulse.
Its SLM (Single Longitudinal Mode) output features a kHz repetition rate and a few tens of ns of pulse duration.
The OPO source’s main applications includes LIDARremote gas detection in the whole LWIR or MWIR spectral region.
It was tested under severe conditions on the field: implemented in a LIDAR system, the OPO source allowed to detect succsessfully different toxic gases at 300m distance.

Robust multiphoton system tailored for in vivo applications
Nikon’s multiphoton confocal microscopes, which clearly visualize fine structures deep within living organisms, have evolved even further. The AX R MP, equipped with a high speed high resolution resonant scanner, can capture dynamics that span a wide area with superior spatial and temporal resolution. In addition, a greatly expanded sample area provides the flexibility needed to observe biological samples in their natural positions and accommodates additional equipment often required for in vivo imaging.
The AX R MP maximizes image size, as well as spatial and temporal resolution, providing a uniquely powerful solution for any multiphoton experiment.

LDH-I Series features a large range of smart laser heads compatible with the Taiko PDL M1 driver. Laser heads from this series provide wavelengths in the spectral range from 375 to 1550 nm and include power calibrations. When coupled with a Taiko PDL M1, their optical output power can be controlled in both pulsed and continuous modes. Additionally, a wavelength calibration is available in CW mode. Each laser head is identified by the Taiko PDL M1 driver and includes not only linearized calibration data but also an operating hours counter.
The LDH Series laser heads are ideally suited for any application that requires picosecond pulses with variable repetition rates. Since we use a wide variety of laser diode types for our LDH laser heads, we can offer a broad range of wavelengths, power values, and spectral widths. Each laser head includes control electronics specially matched to the diode and collimating optics. Different types of optical fibers can also be fitted to laser output.
