Laser system for rubidium-based optically pumped magnetometers. The laser system should consist of the following components: 7 independent tuneable diode lasers in the 780 - 795 nm range (including aR coated diodes, temperature stability, optical isolator) with controllers(a controller could be used for up to two lasers) Specifications for the diodes: - Wavelength tuning range 765nm-800nm - Output power after isolator >50mW - Linewidth <100kHz - Mode hop free tuning range >25GHz - Frequency stability < 100MHz/K P a g e | 3 Specifications for Laser diode controllers with frequency locking option: - Temperature, current and piezo control with very low drift - Enables to control up multiple laser heads - Enables side and top of the peak locking - Enables lock-in signal generation for locking to the top of the peak - Includes PIDs to enable independent piezo and current locking for each laser diode - Low current noise ( low frequency current noise< 100nA p-p) 1 laser diode at 928 nm with optical isolator to be used with one of the laser heads - Output power 100mW after the isolator - Coarse tuning range +/- 10nm - Mode-hope free tuning range at least 20GHz Overall budget for this item is up to £114,000 (VAT exemption) All tender questions must be answered within the tender form to facilitate comparison of responses.
