Easily locate and analyze high power laser sources in the 800 to 1700 nm or 190 to 390 nm wavelength range with powers up to 10KW/cm2 with these pocket sized, low-cost alternatives to an IR viewer. These cards contain a special sensor that emits clearly visible light when illuminated by IR or UV sources. This allows for the easy location of IR and UV beams and their focal point, even in the dark, and the visualization of spatial mode patterns. The cards are always ready to use with no optical charging required.

Model F-IRC-HP converts IR radiation from 800-1700nm to visible green, while the F-UVC-HP converts UV radiation from 190-390nm laser to visible red light. Both the IR and UV cards are suitable for cw and pulsed lasers. The 23 x 23 mm active area is located at one end of the 25 x 100 mm anodized Aluminum card for both models. Typical applications include sensing and locating Excimer lasers, Gas lasers and tripled ND:YAG lasers.

The model F-IRC-HP-M is a larger area high power sensor card sensitive in the 780-1070 nm wavelength range. With it's 50 x 63 mm active area, and ability to withstand powers up to 80W/cm2, the F-IRC-HP-M is particularly suited for mode structure analysis when profiling a laser beam. The F-IRC-HP-M produces a high contrast of different intensities in the yellow wavelength range allowing transverse modes of YAG lasers become visible. The F-IRC-HP-M sensor is located at one end of a 50 x 100 mm anodized Aluminum card.
