![]() 34, Rue de la Croix de Fer 78100 Saint Germain-en-Laye France See us at LASER World of Photonics 2025 in Munich, June 24–27 (booth B2.341)! | ![]() The Exail (formerly iXblue) ModBox-OFE is a complete front end laser system designed to be used as a seed source in high energy density laser facilities. The system is available at 1030 nm, 1053 nm and 1064 nm, it allows to generate custom shaped optical pulses with high stability and high extinction ratio and with durations from 125 ps to 100 ns. The short pulse generation is based on the combination of a high-performance continuous laser source combined with a large bandwidth modulation. The ModBox-OPG is a family of optical pulse generation units which generate pulses with durations from 30 ps to hundreds of nanoseconds, and with very high extinction ratio. The available optical shapes are Gaussian and square waveform. The ModBox works at any wavelength, and for an optical pulse train repetition which is externally triggered up to gigahertz repetition rates. The optical spectral broadening ModBox-OSB achieves the broadening of an optical signal by modulating its phase via the mean of a very efficient LiNbO3 phase modulator. A number of side bands are created over a spectral width that can reach several hundreds GHz. The ModBox-OSB contains a single-tone RF generator, white noise sources or PRBS sources. The ModBox-OSB integrates laser chain such as High Energy Lasers (HEL) lasers or Spectral Beam Combining laser architectures (SBC). Product-specific web page |
