MCA Series 1.5ns Microchip Laser
MCA series microchip lasers are RealLight’s self-developed, passively Q-switched diode-pumped solid-state lasers, featuring stable single pulse energy, excellent beam quality and high reliability. The integrated design of diode-pumped module and laser crystal brings convenience to installation and integration due to the compact size. MCA series provides various wavelengths include 1064nm, 532nm, 355nm and 266nm, and supports internal and external triggering. The internal hermetic module of the laser head is available to customers for tailor-made development.

*Side laser outlet configuration（middle laser outlet configuration unless otherwise stated）
Lasers with repetition rate < 20kHz are positive-edge-triggered, and lasers with repetition rate > 20kHz are gate-triggered.
All systems rely on 5V TTL levels and have SMA interfaces for external triggering input. See mechanical specifications for more details!
