Santec High speed laser Download Brochure

The HSL swept laser series has been specifically developed for imaging applications such as optical coherence tomography (OCT). These lasers are continuously scanned, at high speed, over a wide tuning range of up to 170nm. Scan rates of up to 50kHz are available. The coherence length that governs imaging depth can be chosen up to 60mm. The performance of the HSL laser has opened up applications beyond OCT in fields such as spectroscopy and fiber-optic sensing.

Features (of the series)

  • 50kHz scan rate
  • Widest scan range(170nm) in the HSL series
  • Long coherence length(30~50mm) for long/deep measurement range
  • High linearity allows simple direct FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) on sampled data for OCT calculation
HSL-mini-285x179  

Santec introduces a new MEMS scanner based high speed swept source, which achieves our fastest scan of 50 kHz, while maintaining a wide scan range of over 160nm. These combined features provide an advantage in ultra high-speed imaging or motion-sensitive applications such as ophthalmology and endoscopy, among others.

Features

  • High-speed: 50kHz
  • 160nm wide scan range, 6μm axial resolution (theoretical)
  • High S/N：RIN<120dB
  • LabVIEW software is available as an option (please ask)
  • k-clock available
  • Compact footprint 144×193×75 (WxDxH)(mm)


Santec’s extensive experience in optical component manufacturing, system integration and support makes us an ideal OEM partner for OCT components and modules. We build all the key components for OCT systems in-house, and we regularly customize these to meet specific requirements. Swept source engine supports medical grade standard such as IEC60601and CE mark. We also provide technical support/transfer for launching specific OCT project, services we can support include:
Hardware

OEM light sources (swept source)
Interferometers
Photo detectors
Endoscopic fiber probe/catheters
Optical delay lines
Specially designed data acquisition board
Santec BPD  
BPD-200 is a balanced photo detector that outputs the difference of two detector signals. This can be used for reduction of common mode noise due to the laser power fluctuation. In heterodyne detection as in the most of OCT applications, it benefits 3dB sensitivity advantage when detecting the signal inverted in phase in between two input signals. Furthermore, special design significantly reduced the problem of the undesired image artifact which was a major problem in the other balanced detectors. BPD-200 is the best detector ever made specifically for SS-OCT applications.

Features

  • Wide dynamic range(DC to 80MHz)
  • High reliability and high gain, high linearity
  • Flat balanced level
  • Specially designed for artifact-reduction
