Partnership with EKSPLA Electronics: In high-energy and ultrafast photonics, precision is everything.<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771778467895{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

The laser diode driver is not just an electronic component; it is the fundamental heart that determines the stability, linewidth, and lifetime of the entire system. When the demands are highest, you need technology built on absolute trust.<\/p>\n

That is why we are exceptionally proud to partner with EKSPLA to bring their acclaimed uniLDD laser diode drivers to the United States.<\/p>\n

EKSPLA has long set the global standard for scientific and industrial laser systems. They designed the uniLDD series to meet their own rigorous requirements for driving everything from single emitters to complex stacks in their demanding DPSSL applications. This is technology field-tested in the most challenging environments.<\/p>\n

By combining EKSPLA\u2019s depth of experience in laser design with Wavelength Electronics\u2019 established reputation for local support and service in the US, we are giving researchers and OEMs direct access to this critical technology.<\/p>\n

Reliable performance is now\u00a0closer than ever.<\/a><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”70529″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1507146836113{margin-top: 5px !important;background-color: #000000 !important;}”][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_empty_space height=”12px”][mk_fancy_title color=”#ffffff” size=”22″ force_font_size=”true” size_smallscreen=”20″ size_tablet=”18″ size_phone=”16″ txt_transform=”uppercase” margin_top=”10″ font_family=”none”]Subscribe to our newsletter for tips, techniques & product updates.[\/mk_fancy_title][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][mk_button dimension=”flat” corner_style=”rounded” size=”medium” url=”http:\/\/teamwavelength.us4.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=e683bb028455c6da2682e79a6&id=cb59ea9375″ target=”_blank” align=”center” margin_top=”15″]Subscribe [\/mk_button][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”22px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”70560″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][vc_column_text margin_bottom=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1771779275026{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

PW2026: And the Winners are…<\/span><\/em><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771778572444{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]We had a great time at Photonics West this year\u2014catching up with distributors, connecting with customers, and gathering real-world insight into the capabilities you need for your next breakthroughs. Those conversations directly shape what we build, including our newly expanded product line developed with EKSPLA Electronics, now supporting currents up to 1200A to give your high-demand applications the support they deserve.<\/p>\n

This year also marked our first sweepstakes, and the excitement was palpable. Attendees from research and industry alike entered for the chance to win controllers that make precision projects easier.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to our winners:
\n1st Prize \u2013 Andrew Wright, Servomex<\/strong>
\nAndrew is a Senior Scientist advancing electrochemical and spectroscopic ultratrace gas measurement technologies. He\u2019s developing next-generation lab capabilities for Servomex\u2019s strategic roadmap\u2014and the\u00a0TC10 LAB temperature control instrument<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is already lined up to support that work.<\/p>\n

2nd Prize \u2013 Ted Letsou, Harvard University<\/strong>
\nTed works in the Capasso Group, where the team is pushing the boundaries of mid-IR nonlinear photonic integrated circuits using QCL-based platforms. Wavelength Electronics gear has been part of their setups for over a decade, and the\u00a0LDTC1020 integrated laser controller<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0will help drive future QCL and thermal management experiments in an efficient, compact footprint.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s to smoother setups, faster progress, and tools that give you an edge in your next strategic leap.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”70561″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” css=”” link=”http:\/\/www.teamwavelength.com\/maintenance\/download\/applicationtechnotes\/CS-LD16.pdf”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771778995565{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

Precision that Scales: Self-Detecting Dual-Comb Spectroscopy with Injection-Locked QCLs<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1771778731949{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n

By combining emission and detection on the same QCL chip, researchers demonstrated a scalable path for future mid-infrared instruments. This approach supports smaller systems, easier manufacturing, and more accessible dual-comb sensing.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0QCL2000 LAB<\/a>\u00a0contributed to this vision by providing precise control and ultra-low noise that researchers relied on for stable continuous-wave operation as the combs were tuned and synchronized.<\/p>\n
