AGILE

Tunable White Light Source

AGILE® is a wavelength-tunable supercontinuum laser providing picosecond pulses with variable kHz to MHz repetition rates, making fluorescence lifetime measurements even easier.

AGILE

Tunable White Light Source

  • Picosecond pulsed source for time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) 
  • Continuous spectral output: <400 nm to >2000 nm – wide range to suit most applications 
  • Tunable repetition rate: from 10 kHz to 1 MHz  
  • Designed for FLS1000: no alignment required (standalone operation possible) 
  • MCS compatible: for faster measurements of long decays

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Edit Content

Designed for TCSPC in the FLS1000 Photoluminescence Spectrometer, AGILE® is a wavelength-tunable, high brightness supercontinuum laser providing picosecond pulses with variable kHz to MHz repetition rates. 

AGILE features a broadband spectral output from <400 nm to >2000 nm and pulse repetition rates from 10 kHz to 1 MHz, making it the ideal light source for most fluorescence lifetime applications. Using the TCSPC technique, fluorescence lifetimes from a few picoseconds to microseconds can be accurately resolved. It is also compatible with Multi-Channel Scaling (MCS) mode for lifetimes up to 10 μs. 

Thanks to the FLS1000 monochromator, AGILE provides continuous wavelength tuning across the visible and near-infrared spectrum with output power and temporal profile comparable to individual, single wavelength, picosecond pulsed diode lasers.
