SuperK COMPACT Supercontinuum Lasers

The SuperK COMPACT is a cost-effective supercontinuum white light source delivering diffraction limited light in the entire 450-2400 nm region with a brightness orders of magnitude larger than that of incandescent lamps and with far greater bandwidth than ASE sources or SLEDs. The light is delivered in a single mode fiber terminated with either a standard FC/PC connector or their high quality collimator.

The SuperK COMPACT can be found in laboratories around the World where it is the daily driver for many users within applications like component characterization, test & measurement, spectroscopy, and OCT or simply as a general-purpose laboratory white light source.

The SuperK COMPACT can be triggered externally and synced with low jitter up to 20 kHz. The trigger signal can be provided to a standard coax input or to the industrial trigger input that galvanically isolated.

Reliability and long lifetime

The core of the SuperK systems is based on the world-renowned Crystal Fibre Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) technology, which has been deployed in commercial and academic markets for over a decade.  NKT Photonics is the largest manufacturer of PCF technology and reliability, quality and performance are ensured through DIN ISO 9000 certified processes.

Continuous testing of multiple systems during and after the development phase of the SuperK systems has ensured the longest continuous running lifetime in the market.
