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).

is based on the TLS-55-X300 but adds a homogenization unit to the exit port of the monochromator that includes an electronic shutter and 2 position filter tray.

Tunable Light Source Motorized Iris

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:

Xe, Xe-Hg and Hg lamps from 75 W to 1.6 kW
QTH lamps from 50W - 500W
Dual deuterium/QTH source
Mid-IR sources up to 1700 Kelvin
Available spectral range 180 nm - 10 µm (light source, optics and grating dependent)
Additional homogenizing optics for higher spatial uniformity at the output
Additional fiber optic cables
Double subtractive and double additive monochromators
Monochromators up to 1 meter focal length
Motorized or manual Iris
Optical light feedback for additional source stabilization (only available with Xe and Xe-Hg lamps)
Detectors and Data Acquisition Systems can be provided as add-ons
Can be coupled with Integrating Spheres, samples chambers and other opto-mechanical components upon request

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.
