coherent will emphasise ultrafast lasers and related products including Legend Elite Duo CEP, Libra HE, Chameleon with the Compact OPO and the Verdi G10 pump laser. Legend Elite Duo CEP is an ultrafast amplifier that can deliver 10W of power, repetition rates up to 10kHz and optional CEP stabilisation – all without cryogenic cooling. Libra is a fully integrated, one-box amplifier system designed to deliver high-power femtosecond pulses to the broadest possible audience. Designed primarily for multiphoton excitation (MPE) imaging, the Chameleon Compact OPO extends Chameleon operations to 1-1.6µm for imaging and spectroscopy. Based on Coherent’s unique optically pumped semiconductor laser (OPSL) technology, Verdi G10 is a 10W, low noise, CW green (532nm) laser intended for reliable and cost-effective pumping of titanium:sapphire lasers.

its Techspec Calibration Grade Precision Aspheric Lenses, which are high NA, off-the-shelf polished aspheric lenses offering the ultimate in performance and precision technology. These lenses offer improved aspheric surface figure, surface quality and centering specification over standard precision aspheric lenses and provide an aspheric surface accuracy of 0.25µm RMS. Uncoated lenses are available in 25mm and 50mm diameters, with Numerical Apertures (NAs) of 0.50 and 0.66, making them ideally suited for integration into R&D as well as OEM applications. These high NA lenses are excellent for improving the efficiency of low-light level detection systems or for
300W QCW power per bar. The diode stacks have use in defence applications, such as infrared counter-measures (IRCM), where the wavelength range is extended to 1,900nm with eight bars delivering up to 10W/bar (or 80W per stack) in QCW mode (up to
applications requiring a compact optical path, where space is at a premium. Techspec Calibration Grade
Precision Aspheric Lenses are individually serialised and are offered with a complete metrology data package. This test data package includes a surface profile performed on a precision Taylor Hobson Talysurf
25 per cent duty cycle). The stack can be fast-axis and slow-axis collimated to deliver higher beam quality. These conduction-cooled vertical stacks are available in custom configurations with up to 15 bars on a 34 x 34mm footprint.

Dontech will display its range of Optical Fine Wire (OFW) and Micro EMI-Mesh (MEM100) conductive optical grids, used to provide optical EMI/RFI shielding for electronic displays, instrumentation and enclosures. The OFW mesh is constructed of
Profilometer, an interferogram of the spherical surface, and tested values for diameter, centre thickness and centration. Custom designed calibration grade precision aspheric lenses as well as coating requirements and volume pricing are available upon request. Lenses are in stock and available for immediate delivery.

woven and conductively plated fine-wire stainless steel and copper, whereas the MEM100 series is made of etched and blackened copper.
The conductive optical grids combine excellent shielding effectiveness with optical performance, making them particularly well-suited for electronic displays and optics applications including military, aircraft, medical, industrial displays, and rugged computers, communication systems and test equipment. Dontech’s grid counts typically
