Thorlabs Inc products

The BBD300 Series of Brushless DC Motor Controllers are ideal for motion control applications demanding operation at high speeds (hundreds of mm/s) and with high encoder resolution (MLS203 Series of Dual-Axis Scanning Stages or general motion applications using our 220 mm, 300 mm, or 600 mm translation stages or our direct drive rotation stage. For 19" rack applications, we also offer the RBD201 controller.

horlabs` expanding line of optical power and energy meters includes power meter consoles, a large selection of sensor heads, a wireless power meter with a built-in photodiode sensor, and a fiber optic power meter designed for use in the field. The consoles (PM100, PM400, and PM300 Series) when paired with our extensive line of power and energy sensors provide calibrated (NIST traceable) measurements across a broad range of powers, energies, and wavelengths. The console(s) and sensor(s) can be purchased individually or as bundles based on our most popular console and sensor pairings. The sensor calibration data is stored in the sensor head and is automatically read by the console, which allows the user to use multiple sensors with the same console. Compatible sensors are easily identified by the red c-series connector. All of our old A/B-Type sensors are available with the new connector; plus, we have continued to expand our power and energy sensor product lines.

Thorlabs` C-Series Thermal Power Sensors are collectively able to detect power ranges from 10 µW to 200 W and wavelength ranges from 190 nm to 20 µm. These thermopile-based sensors are ideal choices for measuring broadband spectra from amplified spontaneous emission(ASE) sources, light emitting diodes (LEDs),filament lamps, swept-wavelength lasers, and other sources. In addition, thermal power sensors do not saturate, which makes them well suited to measuring pulsed sources with high pulse peak powers or long-duration pulses.These thermal power sensors also exhibit low dependency on the angle and position of the incident light beam.They are preferred for applications that cannot tolerate the strong wavelength dependencies and/or saturation thresholds of photodiode sensors. However,thermal power sensors generally have lower power resolutions and longer response times. We offer a wide range of thermal power sensors, with each including different design features.

Thorlabs` Pyroelectric Energy Meter Sensors are sensitive to wavelengths from 185 nm to 25 µm and together span the energy range from 10 µJ to 15 J. All of these sensors provide a flat response over a large wavelength range. The ES220C and ES245C feature a ceramic coating that is specifically designed for lasers with high energy densities requiring high damage thresholds.
