High-speed picosecond laser
Product Overview
The high-speed picosecond laser is an instrument widely used in scientific research fields such as laser ranging, optical measurement, and fluorescence lifetime analysis. In recent years, with the development of quantum cryptography, the high-speed picosecond laser has emerged as a core device for generating quantum signals, serving as a single-photon source.
The WT-LD series lasers are optical instruments derived from quantum cryptographic communication systems. They feature low cost, high repetition rate, ultra-narrow pulses, and high stability. Integrating both continuous-wave lasers and ultra-narrow, high-frequency pulsed lasers, these devices represent one of the few high-performance lasers available domestically and internationally that can achieve GHz frequencies with pulse widths on the picosecond scale. The equipment supports multiple standard and custom-level inputs, including LVTTL, LVPECL, NECL, and CML. Thanks to its built-in precision temperature-control circuit, the laser tube’s output wavelength fluctuation is kept below 0.1 nm.
Main features
● Ultra-high repetition rate: 1 GHz / 1.25 GHz

● High stability: Constant-temperature control design eliminates the impact of temperature drift.
● Multiple operating modes: Supports pulse mode and continuous mode.
● Multiple trigger modes: Supports internal triggering and external triggering.

Atmospheric Turbulence Simulation Experimental System
The atmospheric turbulence simulation experimental system is built upon a spatial light modulator (SLM) to create a platform for simulating atmospheric turbulence conditions. By leveraging Kolmogorov’s statistical theory of turbulence and the power spectral density method, it generates dynamically adjustable turbulent phase screens. The system supports adjustment of subharmonic orders, enabling the creation of random phase screens that accurately reflect the statistical characteristics of turbulence. The software integrates a multidimensional parameter-control module that encompasses key variables such as phase-screen resolution and size, atmospheric coherence length (r0), inner and outer turbulence scales (l0 and L0), beam wavelength, beam waist radius, and propagation distance, thereby facilitating fine-grained simulation of turbulence intensity and propagation scenarios. Real-time loading of phase screens onto the SLM enables wavefront modulation, while the system also provides synchronous support for visual analysis of phase screens, import and export of image files, and data storage, thus offering a high-precision experimental environment for research on laser propagation under atmospheric turbulence interference and for validation of adaptive-optics algorithms.
