Where to Buy White Light Sources

Our SuperK series is the industry leading range of turn-key supercontinuum lasers used by many of the most innovative companies within bio-imaging, semiconductor inspection and scientific instrumentation. The sources are extremely robust and reliable, built for intensive use, and can replace multiple single-line lasers, large dye and gas lasers as well as broadband sources like ASE sources and SLEDs. We offer supercontinuum solutions at every level – from nonlinear fiber and modules to complete turnkey SuperK supercontinuum lasers with plug & play accessories. Our turnkey SuperK supercontinuum lasers have a lifetime of several thousand hours and high power output from 400 to 2400 nm.

Iceblink is a supercontinuum fiber laser covering the 450–2300 nm spectral range with over 1 W of average power and superior stability (<0.5% std. dev.). It is a very versatile white light source with a world of applications in the scientific and industrial sectors, including absorption/transmission measurements for material characterization, VIS, NIR and IR spectroscopy, single molecule spectroscopy and fluorescence excitation.

The spatial coherence and broad spectrum of Iceblink makes it a great alternative to classic lamps, single-line lasers, LEDs and ASE sources.

ELECTRO VIS is the latest LEUKOS development. Optimized for long lifetime, power in the visible and ease of use, ELECTROVIS is a high end, short-pulse high-tech device. Ideal for applications where reliability is essential while cost matters.

Thorlabs manufacturers multiple white light sources including incoherent lamps as well as laser systems for the vis-NIR and mid-IR spectral regions. Our VIS-NIR supercontinuum generation kit can be used with an existing femtosecond pump laser, while our SC4500 mid-IR supercontinuum laser offers an all-fiber turn-key solution providing coverage from 1.3 – 4.5 µm.
