CRONUS-2P is a femtosecond laser providing watt-level three synchronized outputs with high repetition rate, short pulse duration, and GDD control, making it the ultimate source for nonlinear microscopy. In standard configuration, the two independently tunable outputs, operating separately or simultaneously, cover 680 – 960 nm and 960 – 1300 nm, respectively, while the third is fixed at 1025 nm and is accessible in parallel. Thus, the CRONUS-2P can be used for simultaneous excitation of multiple fluorescent probes, calcium indicators, or opsins at their absorption maxima, whereas second- and third‑harmonic emission (SHG and THG) can be spectrally shifted for ease of detection or resonant enhancement.
The two tunable and simultaneous channels also enable advanced coherent anti-Stokes and stimulated Raman scattering (CARS and SRS) applications with dual-band imaging, a broader selection of vibrational resonance frequencies, constant-difference dual‑beam tuning, resonant enhancement, and more.
CRONUS-2P configurations:
- Standard: 680 – 960 nm (tunable), 960 – 1300 nm (tunable), and 1025 nm (fixed)
- Dual output A: 680 – 960 nm (tunable), 680 – 960 nm (tunable), and 1025 nm (fixed)
- Dual output B: 960 – 1300 nm (tunable), 960 – 1300 nm (tunable), and 1025 nm (fixed)
- Configuration with dual-output A or dual-output B is also available.
- Simultaneous mode: > 1 W @ 920 nm, > 1 W @ 1100 nm, and > 2.5 W @ 1025 nm.
- Speficied at 920 nm, 1100 nm, and 1025 nm, respectively.
- IR pulse duration determined assuming sech2 shape.
- Beam pointing deviation over the entire tuning and GDD control range.
- Expressed as NRMSD (normalized root mean squared deviation); with less than ±1 °C temperature change after 1 h warm up.
