Cobolt Mambo™ – compact DPSS laser at 594 nm now up to 100 mW

2009-11-11, Cobolt AB, Swedish manufacturer of low-noise DPSS lasers, announces the release of a higher power model of its already market leading orange laser. The Cobolt Mambo™ is perfectly suited for fluorescence analysis applications such as confocal microscopy and flow cytometry.

The Cobolt Mambo™ is a continuous-wave solid-state lasers operating at a fixed wavelength 594 nm and with an output power of 25 mW, 50 mW and now 100 mW. Built into a hermetically sealed compact package using the proprietary HTCureTM technology for extreme robustness, the Cobolt Mambo™ is a single longitudinal mode laser with low noise (<0.3 % rms), narrow spectral line width (typically <30 MHz) and exceptionally high beam quality (M2<1.1). The Cobolt lasers are based on proprietary PPKTP frequency conversion technology, for optimum flexibility and efficiency. The Cobolt MamboTM laser provides a compact solid-state and higher power alternative to HeNe lasers, which opens up a new range of fluorescence applications, in particular for the excitation of Alex Fluor 594, Texas Red and the new very bright gene expression proteins mCherry & mKate. Cobolt now offers a complete range of high performance DPSS lasers to the fluorescence based bioanalytical industry: 355 nm, 457 nm, 473 nm, 491 nm, 515nm, 532 nm, 561 nm, and 594 nm lasers are currently available at output powers from 10 to 300 mW. Lasers built using the HTCureTM Technology have shown to withstand multiple 60G mechanical shocks in operation without any sign of degraded performance. They can be exposed to extreme temperatures (>100 oC), and are insensitive to pressure and humidity. HTCureTM Technology is an advanced manufacturing technique for high-performance solid-state lasers that can provide exceptional reliability and performance for today’s demanding applications.

The laser is supplied with an ultra-compact controller (CDRH or OEM) which can be remotely accessed for operation and monitoring of the laser system via digital (RS-232) or analog interfaces.
