5.1 Overview of the Laser Units

1-95

C-LU2 two-laser unit

This unit can mount two lasers. To control the laser intensity, insert or remove the two ND filters in front of

each laser head. A motorized shutter is provided for each laser and can be controlled on the TI-LUSU shutter

unit.

C-LU3 three-laser unit

This unit can mount three lasers. To control the laser intensity, insert or remove the two ND filters in front of

each laser head. A motorized shutter is provided for each laser and can be controlled on the TI-LUSU shutter

unit.

C-LU3EX three-laser unit EX

This unit can mount three lasers. To control the laser intensity, rotate the brightness adjustment knob in front

of each laser head. A motorized shutter is provided for each laser and can be controlled on software or the

TI-LUSU shutter unit. Besides, the optional Ar wavelength selector unit can select the laser wavelength from

488 nm and 514 nm.

If the AOM unit (option) is installed, laser beam can be adjusted by the software.

LU4A four-laser module A

This unit can mount four lasers. To control the laser intensity, perform the AOTF on the software. A motorized

shutter is provided for each laser and can be opened or closed on software or the TI-LUSU shutter unit.
