Electro-Optic Modulators

Modulate the phase of your laser beam with one of these devices, or combine with a quarter waveplate and polarizer to perform amplitude modulation.

The use of high-quality CdTe supports these high-performance modulators in intracavity applications for q-switching, mode-locking, or cavity dumping your laser. Or use them downstream for beam intensity modulation, pulse shaping, or ultrashort pulse generation.

Electro-Optic Modulators

Use these modulators with virtually any IR laser beam, including HeNe lasers operating at 3.39 µm, CO lasers at 5 to 7 µm, and CO2 lasers at 9 to 11 µm.
