Imaging and Optical Techniques
Compressive sensing sum frequency generation microscopes
Light Sources
- Light Conversion (Pharos) Yb:KGW based system with a fundamental wavelength of 1030 nm and 180 fs pulse duration running at a repetition rate of 5 kHz
- Light Conversion optical parametric generator/amplifier (Orpheus)
- Light Converstion difference frequency generator (Lyra) with output from 1000 to 4000 cm−1 for the infrared beam
- SHBC (second harmonic bandwidth compressor) generates a 515 nm beam with a 2−3 ps pulse and 8 cm−1
Wide field sum frequency generation microscope
Light Sources
- A picosecond pulsed Nd:YAG laser (EKSPLA) with a 20 Hz repetition rate provides the 1064 nm beam serving as the pump beam for SFG, as well as the pump beam of the tunable IR beam from 2000 to 4000 cm−1 that is generated from the optical parametric generator/amplifier (OPG/OPA) LaserVision
