BPS 1002

Beam Pointing Stabilization

High average power systems are often associated with longer thermalization behaviors interfering with reproducibility of experimental measurements and implying optical realignment throughout the day. Using our BPS-1002, you can speed up your warm-up time and stabilize the performance of your system by locking the laser beam position.

This stand-alone product enables the precise positioning of your beam using two quadrant detectors and two piezoelectric mirror mounts from the Thorlabs Polaris ® series.
Configuration and monitoring of the system are performed remotely via an intuitive Windows application.
