PicoQuant GmbH

Pulsed Lasers and Light Sources

PicoQuant is the supplier of choice for small and reliable picosecond pulsed diode lasers with up to 80 MHz repetition rates. Laser heads with wavelengths from 375 to 1550 nm and pulsed LEDs between 255 and 600 nm can be provided. A large variety of driver electronics for all types of diode lasers are available for a wide range of applications including modulation (up to 2 GHz) and long pulse generation (nsec to µsec).

Photon Counting Instrumentation

PC-card and stand alone modules based on timing electronics are available from PicoQuant. These versatile instruments for time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) readily support sophisticated techniques for single molecule spectroscopy (SMS) and 2D scanning (FLIM) applications.

Fluorescence Lifetime Systems

PicoQuant offers various fluorescence lifetime system. The available products include time-resolved spectrometers for a variety of applications: from compact table-top spectrometers for teaching or daily routine work to modular high-end spectrometers with exact timing down to 50 ps instrument response width. Upgrade kits for laser scanning microscopes as well as complete single molecule sensitives microscope systems can be provided. Samples can be liquids in standard cuvettes, membranes or even semiconductor wafers for in-line quality control.
