Tunable Light Sources
Sciencetech Tunable Light Sources
A tunable light source begins with a broadband light source and uses a monochromator to allow the user to freely select and output only the desired wavelengths of interest.
Sciencetech offers a series of turnkey computer-controlled Tunable Light Sources (TLS)
Sciencetech Tunable Light Sources provide monochromatic light from 300 nm to 1800 nm (extended ranges from 180 nm to 10 µm available with customizations) with optical resolution from 48 nm to 0.2 nm. Collimated light output is standard and, condensed or coupled output light options can be provided on request.
Tunable Light Source Demostration
Software Included
Sciencetech’s software, Sci-Spec, controls all components of the system. In the standard configuration, it controls the light source, shutter, filter wheel with order sorting filters, monochromator and gratings.
Sciencetech Tunable Light Source Models
Sciencetech offers 4 base models of Tunable Monochromatic Light Sources:
| TLS Model | Lamp Type and Power | Spectral Range (nm) | Focal length (Monochromator) | Resolution |
| TLS 55-X300 | Xe (300 W) | 300 - 1800 nm | 1 / 4 Meter | 0.2 nm @ 300 - 450 nm, 0.4 nm @ 450 - 1800 nm |
| TLS-55-Q250 | QTH (250 W) | 300 - 1800 nm | 1 / 4 Meter | 0.2 nm @ 300 - 450 nm, 0.4 nm @ 450 - 1800 nm |
| TLS 72-X300 | Xe (300 W) | 300 - 1800 nm | 1 / 8 Meter | 0.5 nm @ 300 - 450 nm, 0.7 nm @ 450 - 1800 nm |
| TLS 72-Q250 | QTH (250 W) | 300 - 1800 nm | 1 / 8 Meter | 0.5 nm @ 300 - 450 nm, 0.7 nm @ 450 - 1800 nm |
Tunable Light Source Solar Simulator
Sciencetech also offers a tunable light source - solar simulator combination system. This system, allows a selectable output at the target plane of spatially uniform sun light or monochromatic light. Spectral matches can be provided in AM1.5G or AM0 (ASTM Standard).
Tunable Light Source Customization
Tunable Light Source With Available Customizations and Add-Ons
All components of the system, including the light source and monochromator, can be customized. Available options include:
The standard models have a safety quartz window at the output port to eliminate UVB rays. This safety quartz window can be replaced with a UV grade fused silica window if the application requires UV light to pass through or BK7 glass window if no UV light is required.
