The Excelsior One NB 488-50 narrow bandwidth 488 nm direct-diode laser powers bioinstrumentation applications.

The Excelsior One NB 488-50 narrow bandwidth 488 nm direct-diode laser powers bioinstrumentation applications. It outputs up to 50 mW at 488 nm and has a laser-to-laser center wavelength variation of > ±1 nm. It delivers typical FWHM linewidth of <0.5 nm and low noise of <0.5% rms for high signal-to-noise-ratio and more accurate results.
