The Spectra-Physics Excelsior^® Scientific family of lasers is a low-cost alternative to power-hungry argon ion lasers and many diode pumped solid-state lasers. These innovative low power continuous wave (CW) solid-state lasers are available at 473, 532, 561, and 1064 nm. They are excellent tools for a variety of research applications because they provide superior optical beam quality, exceptionally low optical noise, and high reliability. The single frequency versions of the Excelsior Scientific lasers are ideal for applications that rely on high frequency stability and very narrow linewidths, such as Brillouin scattering, Raman spectroscopy, holographic, and interferometry.
