Ophir Photonics Announces High Damage Threshold Sensor for Measuring Low Average Power Pulsed Lasers
December 21, 2015 North Logan, UT – Ophir Photonics Group, the global leader in precision laser measurement equipment and a Newport Corporation company, today announced the 3A-PF-12 thermal power/energy laser measurement sensor for short pulsed lasers. Part of the 3A-P family of laser sensors that measure power up to 3W, the 3A-PF-12 is an ultra sensitive sensor that can measure powers from as low as 15μW up to 3W and energies from as low as 20μJ to 2J. The new sensor replaces the P type absorber with the high damage threshold PF type, giving it the industry’s highest energy density damage threshold for repetitive pulses.
