Cobolt 06-01 Series

Plug & play modulated CW lasers

Cobolt 06-01 Series offers lasers over a large wavelength range in a compact plug and play format. The Series consists of high performance fixed wavelength diode laser modules (MLD) and diode-pumped lasers (DPL). High speed direct modulation capability and true off during modulation makes them ideal for applications in bioimaging and quantum technologies.

375 nm – 975 nm, up to 400 mW
Fully integrated electronics
Integrated clean-up filter on all diode wavelengths
Digital & analog modulation with true OFF during modulation (>70 dB)
Fiber pigtailed configuration available
Compatible in the C-FLEX Laser Combiner
Ultra-robust, proven reliability
24 months warranty and < 2 weeks standard lead time

Applications

Perfect for fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, optogenetics, colorimetry, quantum technology, DNA sequencing.

Software

	Software	Description
	Cobolt Monitor	Cobolt Monitor^TM is a combined GUI for all Cobolt laser models. The GUI supports simultaneous connection and monitoring of multiple lasers, configured for either RS232 or USB2.0. The GUI automatically searches for new Cobolt lasers connected to the computer and presents them listed.
	USB Driver	To connect to the laser via USB, the USB driver must be installed. When installed, a virtual COM port will be created to communicate with the laser.
	Lab View	Use to integrate the Cobolt lasers into Lab view environment.
	Integration into imaging software	A Micromanager driver is available for Cobolt 06-01 lasers. Please search for and install the “Cobolt Official” driver from the Micromanager library. The driver is optimized for Cobolt 06-01 Series lasers manufactured after June 2020 but also back-compatible with lasers manufactured before then. If you experience any difficulties with your Micromanager integration, please contact us at: info@coboltlasers.com.
