New Ultrafast Sprite Lasers from M Squared
Sprite-t™ is a new approach to ultrafast Ti:Sapphire laser design, providing the user with a host of features that maximise stability, reliability and productivity. Available in widely-tunable femtosecond or picosecond versions (models XT-F or XT-P), or broad bandwith XP model, Sprite is equally at home in a laboratory or an OEM environment. Download Sprite-t series datasheet.
Sprite-e™ is the world’s first commercially available modelocked semiconductor disk laser that provides picosecond pulses with high average power and superb beam quality in the important 900-1100 nm wavelength region. It is directly pumped and therefore requires no external DPSS laser system. Custom choices of wavelength, tuning range, and repetition rates are available in addition to the standard 975 nm 500 MHz model. Download Sprite-e datasheet.
Sprite features
- Ultracompact, rugged, sealed, monolithic designs
- Hands-free, alignment- and maintenance-free operation
- Cavity optics mounted on an Invar® resonator sub-plate for superb stability
- Proprietary InvarianT™ alignment-free opto-mechanical mounts
Sprite applications
- Optical metrology
- Nonlinear optics
- Pump-probe experiments
- Multi-Photon Excitation (MPE) or CARS microscopy
- Electro-optic sampling

Slip or stick mechanism ensures zero backlash in high-speed piezo driven stages
Specialists in micropositioning systems, mechOnics offer a complete range of positioning stages with piezo inertial drives and motor controllers through Elliot Scientific.
Linear stages are available in X, XY and XYZ configuration together with versions offering up to 6 degrees of tilt, vacuum compatibility and ultra low temperature operation.
With travel ranges of 2 to 30 mm, and speeds of up to 2 mm/s, the direct drive slip or stick rod mechanism of the linear axis ensures zero backlash or rotation.
