Continuously tunable "multi-color" source
Technology at a glance
Specifications
• Photoacoustic spectroscopy of a lipid (commercial-grade cholesterol): 11145–1257 nm
• Photoacoustic spectroscopy of red and blue inks, used to mimic oxy (HbO2) and deoxygenated (HbR) hemoglobin: 535-600 nm
Photoacoustic module
• Ex-vivo imaging architecture.
• Raman fiber laser based multispectral excitation.
•Performance comparable to that on using bulky and cost-ineffective OPOs.
