We have many years of experience in the production of Q-Switch Pockels Cell Driver. Coupletech provides Pockels Cell driver PCD02 with compact design for Q-switches and Pockels Cell Modulator application, and it has mini size with 60*35*16mm. The input signal is +10-15VDC, and its output voltage is from 1000 to 4200V. The rising time and falling time is 10 ns, Output pulse width is 5 us, the repetition rate is from 0 to 2KHz.
APPLICATION Generation of high voltage pulses for the control of electro-optical Q-switches (Pockels cells) in a solid-state laser. Fast HV (less than 10 ns) edge ensures excellent pre-and post-pulse contrast. |
