Coherent Azure NX CW Deep-UV Laser

The Azure deep-UV laser is a compact, low-noise, CW 266nm source designed for easy integration into an industrial environment.

The newly released model, Azure NX, is a 1 watt CW, deep UV laser with unmatched stability in both frequency and power. The laser features super stable beam parameters, hands-free operation, and 24/7 industrial-grade reliability.

Features:

• 1W of ultra low noise CW 266nm
• Complete hands-free operation
• Full remote control
• Compact PermAlign design and hermetically sealed
• Patented single and absolute frequency stabilisation

It emits a wavelength of 266nm, which allows detection of smaller wafer defects that longer wavelengths miss. And, with its shorter wavelength, the Azure improves disc mastering, allowing CD's and DVD's to have higher information storage density than those produced with traditional 351nm and 413nm wavelength lasers.

The Azure features the Sentinel system, an on-board series of automated capabilities that control beam pointing, maintain constant output power at 266nm, shift the crystal, and relock the cavity. The Sentinel system allows the Azure to operate hands-free for extended periods without compromising its performance.

The Azure uses the field-proven Verdi laser to generate green light (532nm) that is then frequency-doubled to 266nm in a resonant enhancement cavity. The Verdi's ultra-low noise characteristics, stability and long life are features of the Azure also.
