You are bidding on an APE/Coherent FemtoControl Motorized Dispersion Control for Femtosecond Lasers. Please feel free to contact me for further information.
More information from the manufacturer's site:
FemtoControl is a motorized dispersion compensation unit for optimization of the duration of femtosecond laser pulses.
A compact boxed system for the spectral range of Ti:Sa lasers is available off the shelf. For applications that require extreme GDD compensation, whether in 2P or 3P microscopy, a range of customer specific solutions are available.
Femtosecond pulses which pass through any kind of optical material experience dispersion that can lead to temporal broadening of the ultrashort pulses with subsequent reduction in peak power. Thus, the experimental conditions are changed and degraded. femtoControl compensates for material dispersion by applying the inverse amount of dispersion to the pulse. This is generated by a pair of prisms on motorized translation stages allowing continuous adjustment of the pulse length.
Listed as "Local pick up only" but I will ship as per buyer's instruction. Buyer will pay actual crating(if desired), shipping and insurance charges.
