Technical content

Widely Tunable, High Power Automated Femtosecond Ti:Sapphire Laser Chameleon Ultra lasers deliver the highest power, the widest tuning range, the fastest tuning speed and the lowest noise of all commercially available Ti:Sapphire lasers. Beam quality and pulse duration is specified to perfectly match your microscope or any other femtosecond experiment. Because of these capabilities, it is possible to image more dyes and fluorescent proteins, and to obtain deeper images more quickly than with any other laser. Chameleon Ultra is the true workhorse of the non-linear imaging market and has been qualified with the widest range of commercial inverted or upright multiphoton microscope platforms available. The laser is an ideal pump source for the Chameleon Compact OPO wavelength extensions, enabling imaging even further into the infrared and for ultrafast spectroscopy applications. All Chameleon lasers are Highly Accelerated Stress Screened (HASS) to ensure highest product reliability, and benefit from Coherent’s acclaimed Advanced Replacement (ARU) service strategy to maximize system uptime.
