LPC
Laser Power Controller激光功率控制器
激光功率控制器(LPC)提供全自動(dòng)的激光束功率調(diào)節(jié)和控制功能。它幾乎可以使用在任何的連續(xù)波或模鎖定激光上，也可選購使用在脈沖激光上。激光功率控制器可透過RS-232或GPIB接口進(jìn)行數(shù)字化控制，也可透過模擬式輸入插孔進(jìn)行控制。面板上的微處理器使用四位數(shù)字呈現(xiàn)實(shí)際的輸出光束功率。

圖一、對(duì)五毫瓦氦－氖激光之調(diào)控。
LPC is a patented intensity control system that fits and connects externally to most of the laser beam, including He-Ne, Ar++, Kr++, He-Cd, Nd: YAG, Ti:Sapphire, and others. It also employs a high-speed liquid crystal part as well as a thermally-controlled monitor photodiode to regulate the beam intensity at a user- select ed level (see Fig.2). LPC will operate by modulating the laser beam, without connecting itself to the laser system.
激光功率控制器是一套具有專利的強(qiáng)度控制系統(tǒng)，以外接的方式適用于大多數(shù)的激光束中，包括氦－氖、氬、氪、氦－鎘、釹：釔鋁石榴石、鈦：藍(lán)寶石激光等。這套控制器使用一個(gè)高速液晶組件及溫度控制監(jiān)測(cè)光二極管，按操作者選定的等級(jí)去調(diào)整激光束的強(qiáng)度。控制器的運(yùn)作是調(diào)制激光束，而不需連接至激光系統(tǒng)。
Among LPC’s features are its compact size and large aperture, making it easier to align. Its liquid crystal modulator allows it to be used with IR lasers, and offers high power handling. A modulation input permits analog select ion of desired output power, while a reference output provides a signal proportional to the monitor photodiode reading.
激光功率控制器的特點(diǎn)尚有它的緊致尺寸及大孔徑，使得它非常容易進(jìn)行調(diào)準(zhǔn)直。它的液晶調(diào)制器可使用在紅外線激光上，并提供高功率激光的操縱功能。一個(gè)調(diào)制輸入使操作者可對(duì)所需的輸出功率進(jìn)行模擬選擇，而參考輸出可提供正比于監(jiān)測(cè)光二極管讀值的訊號(hào)。
