Optical HAL module with fiber-coupled output

Optical HAL module with fiber-coupled output in <30 cm3 volume

The HAL series of low-SWaP, atom-referenced, frequency-agile lasers integrates diode laser sources, an alkali metal vapor-based frequency standard, and a heterodyne beat note collection system into a single butterfly package to deliver highly stable tunable light to your quantum sensing devices. Well known for high-speed, low-noise control electronics as well, we provide stand-alone or integrated electronics configurations that will optimize your system with respect to optical performance, space, power consumption, and thermal management requirements. It is possible to customize the HAL for your specific needs, including single- or multiple-laser designs, amplified and shuttered systems, specific form factors, and other wavelengths.
