Advanced laser solution for fast, flexible, and precise chemical imaging

The all-fiber design of our Picus Duo delivers synchronized Pump and Stokes beams with fully computer-controlled tuning, modulation, and delay. This enables rapid hyperspectral imaging, multicolor acquisition, and fast switching between Raman resonances – all at the push of a button.

With an integrated delay line, amplitude modulator, spectrometer, and SRS detector, the Picus Duo offers everything needed for fast, flexible, and precise chemical imaging.

Unmatched tuning speed

The Picus Duo delivers millisecond tuning across the full Raman range (700–3100 cm⁻¹), enabling rapid spectral switching, continuous sweeping, and real-time multicolor SRS and CARS imaging. This fast and flexible operation supports hyperspectral data acquisition and video-rate imaging with unmatched precision.

Unmatched tuning speed
User-friendly design

User-friendly

Designed for high performance without complexity, the Picus Duo features a compact, air-cooled design that fits easily on any optical table. It requires no water cooling or vibration isolation and includes fully integrated components like modulation, delay, power monitoring, and balanced detection for fast, hands-free operation.

Tailored for custom setups

Ideal for researchers building or upgrading microscopes, the Picus Duo offers maximum flexibility and control. It integrates seamlessly into custom optical paths, allowing full adaptation of beam paths and interfaces for personalized, high-performance SRS imaging with excellent price-performance balance.

Tailored for custom setups
Stable fiber architecture

Stable fiber architecture

At its core, the Picus Duo uses polarization-maintaining single-mode fibers for both Pump and Stokes beams, ensuring excellent beam quality and long-term stability. Integrated fiber delay and tuning mechanisms keep alignment stable without external compensation, enabling consistent performance across the entire tuning range.
