Laser Shutters


Vincent Associates prides itself on the quality laser shutters manufactured available for use in numerous applications including but not limited to Video Imaging, Telescopy, Microscopy, Holography, and X-Ray Switching.

UNIBLITZ laser (LS or UHS series) types are usually small aperture shutter devices (6mm aperture sizes or less) designed to provide fast switching of a laser or to pick a single pulse out of a train of laser pulses. These laser shutter devices can provide opening times in the microsecond range as compared to the larger aperture devices that are in the millisecond range.

The LS is a standard series and available on-line in 2mm (LS2), 3mm (LS3) and 6mm (LS6) apertures. The 1mm aperture is an ultra-high speed device that can provide pulses in the microsecond range. The UHS1cannot be ordered online however, the data sheet is available at http://www.uniblitz.com/capabilities.aspx and can be purchased by contracting one of our technical representatives.

Vincent Associates has a number of apertures and shutter types available to meet most applications. Shown below is a quick comparison of the available laser shutter types and some of their features.
