SmartComb is an optical metrology system in a compact 19” 3U package. It features the first fully automated turn-key optical frequency comb designed and built for use both inside and outside of the optics lab. It measures optical frequencies anywhere in the 630 - 2000 nm wavelength range, and can measure the frequency of external lasers with 14 digits of precision. Alternatively, it can provide optical reference lines within the same spectral range (choose wavelength when ordering).
SmartComb can be used as a standalone device due to its internal RF reference. To enable measurements of higher precision, a radio frequency or an optical reference input is available separately to stabilize the SmartComb.
SmartComb’s modular design enables one of the most versatile commercially available frequency comb systems. Internal components can be adapted to measure different wavelengths, or can be replaced with amplifiers to provide up to 6 output ports. Additional external modules are retrofittable to provide higher powers, customized spectra, and pulse lengths.
SmartComb’s underlying proprietary technology, based on figure 9® lasers, has already been verified onboard aircraft and rockets, demonstrating it is well-suited even for demanding environments.
