A Newport Corporation Brand

nnnn

The Spectra-Physics Spitfire® Ace™ is the most technically advanced ThSapphire regenerative

nnnn

amplifier available. Equipped with the proprietary XPert™ technology, the Spitfire Ace has set

nnnn

the new standard for long term performance, low noise, and day-to-day reproducibility.

nnnn

The XPert stabilization package incorporates multiple elements to ensure optimal

nnnn

performance: Newport optomechanics and Spectra-Physics proprietary optical coatings come

nnnn

together to deliver expert level performance. To support today's demanding experiments, the

nnnn

system performance is guaranteed over extended periods of time, placing the Spitfire Ace in a

nnnn

class by itself.

nnnn

The Spitfire Ace Power Amplifier builds upon this highly successful platform by offering even

nnnn

higher energy and output power. The Power Amplifier system produces more than twice the

nnnn

average power of the Regen-only Spitfire Ace: at 1 kHz and 10 kHz, the system offers

nnnn

>10 W; at 5 kHz, >12 W is achieved. Thanks to the patented XP cavity, the beam quality is

nnnn

excellent providing M2 <1.45 even at the highest energy configuration.

nnnn

The Spitfire Ace performs optimally when seeded using the revolutionary Mai Tai® SP

nnnn

oscillator. This laser is a truly hands-free system, eliminating the need for re-alignment,

nnnn

cleaning or adjustments of any kind. The Mai Tai SP performance specifications are

nnnn

guaranteed over an impressive 20°C temperature range

nnnn

The Spitfire Ace Power Amplifier system is pumped with two Empower® 45 lasers that

nnnn

together can deliver over 90 W of average power. Equipped with proprietary noise reducing

nnnn

technology, the Empower 45 is the quietest amplifier pump laser on the market.
