Finesse 8W Laser

Description

The quality and performance of the finesse laser continues with the one of the more higher power finesses. The finesse 8 takes the very popular finesse platform to the level where it can pump high-power Ti:sapphire oscillators. Benefiting from all the features expected of a finesse, including the compact head, no closed-loop water, excellent clear LCD display, the finesse 8 is an established and reliable laser in the photonics community. With this in mind Laser Quantum now offer a full 5 year warranty to our scientific customers for all finesse lasers, including the finesse 8, as standard.
