KD*P Double Pockels Cells DPZ Series
The LINOS® DPZ Series Pockels Cells offer reliable, easy-to-use electro-optical switches designed for applications that require fast laser light switching. Featuring two crystals in series, the DPZ Pockels cells reduce the switching voltage by 50%, ensuring efficient performance with lower switching voltage demands. These switches are ideal for a wide range of laser systems, combining simplicity and effectiveness to meet your fast-switching needs with confidence and precision.
The LINOS® DPZ Series Pockels Cells use a double-crystal design to reduce switching voltage by 50%, making them ideal for shutter or λ/2 applications. They feature highly deuterated KD*P crystals (>98%) for excellent infrared performance and are available as dry or immersion cells with equivalent transmission. A high damage threshold ensures reliable operation in demanding laser systems.
