Light Conversion's SHBC is a second harmonic bandwidth compressor dedicated to the generation of narrow-bandwidth picosecond pulses from the broad-bandwidth output of PHAROS and CARBIDE femtosecond lasers. 

SHBC and SHBC-NB models enable the creation of versatile optical setups with narrow-bandwidth picosecond pulses in combination with tunable-wavelength broadband femtosecond pulses. In particular, such setups are of interest in sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy and femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS). 

The standard SHBC model is also used to pump ORPHEUS‑PS for tunable picosecond output. 

Features:

  • 515 nm output 
  • Picosecond pulses from femtosecond pump 
  • < 10 cm⁻¹ or < 2 cm⁻¹ spectral bandwidth 
  • 30 % conversion efficiency 
  • Can be used to pump ORPHEUS-PS 
  • Compact footprint
