Monochromatic fiber-coupled LED light sources

Narrow bandwidth, high luminance: The LS-MC1

For many applications in the field of machine vision, fluorescent microscopy and nano-photonics light sources are needed that deliver a narrow-band, monochromatic spectrum.

Enquire now

LED light sources in the LS-MC1 series provide a constantly growing selection – currently amounting to over 20 – of narrow band single wavelength LEDs with a bandwidth of 15-50 nm FWHM, allowing precise work in a defined wavelength range. As a result of optimized optical coupling into the optical fiber – as with all of our light sources – with our LS-MC1 series we have achieved the highest possible luminance. The advantage of directly emitting monochromatic LEDs is their very high level of efficiency, because the entire radiated output is in the useful wavelength range.

For physical reasons, there are currently gaps in the green-yellow spectral range with directly emitting LEDs. LEDs with converter phosphors such as our LS-WL1 or LS-BB1 are helpful in this regard.

The LS-MC1 series supports many different wavelengths. For details please refer to the table in data sheet. Is your desired wavelength missing? Please contact us! If required, further narrowing of the spectral bandwidth through a small band-pass filter is possible.

We look forward to your enquiry.

Our highLight: Highest efficiency along with lowest energy use

LED light sources in the LS-MC1 series offer extremely high luminance and very long lifetime, making them an environmentally friendly substitute for Xe and Hg light sources.

They deliver precisely the wavelength you need for your application, without having to filter out false light. This “green efficiency” makes the LS-MC1 a highly efficient and resource-saving light source.
