Product description

The G&H MC300-5 is a five-channel acousto-optic modulator designed for fast, high-contrast parallel control of multiple laser beams at 413 nm.

Using crystalline quartz acousto-optic technology, the device combines rapid optical response, wide RF bandwidth and low channel crosstalk within a compact multi-channel architecture. Conduction cooling through the mounting surface supports straightforward system integration, making the MC300-5 particularly suited to precision laser systems, optical instrumentation and applications requiring rapid control of several independent beam paths.
