The benefits range Spoton:
- This is a quick and easy way to control the laser beams in real time at an affordable price
- It turns your computer into an instrument for measuring extremely powerful
The measurement position of an optical beam can be achieved using sensors such as CCD camera or a sensor DSP. These detectors can be offered in a wide range of wavelength of the far-UV to near infrared. In addition, each sensor can be equipped with a filter to increase performance. The electronic instrument that allows an interface to a computer by connecting the card either PCI or PCMCIA, or through a connection to the USB 2.0 The standard user interface program SpotOn includes a digital display and graph of the position, power, long-term fluctuation and a communication protocol via RS232.
Several types of detectors available in several sizes are available to measure the centroid position of the beam incident on the detector surface:
- CCD detector
- 4-quadrant detector
- Lateral effect detector two axes
The instrument SpotOn includes:
- PSD detector (side-effect, 4 quadrants or CCD)
- A capture card plugging into the PCI bus or PCMCIA. A version of SpotOn can be plugged directly into a USB
- A software package running under Windows
Main Features:
- Accurate
: The accuracy is 1µm, the resolution is less than one micron
- Versatile:
- Measure both the position and power
- Two types of capture cards are available
- A wide range of types and sizes of detectors is proposed
- Easy to use: Simple installation, easy-to take charge
- Simple interface with other programs such as Excel or Labview
