ARCoptix S.A products

The ARCoptix FTIR "Rocket" OEM modules is the ideal product for system integrators looking for a custom FTIR measurement design. The modular solution consits of essentially 3 elements:Interferometer module,
Detector module, Light source module.

If you are looking for a high performance, compact and affordable NIR spectrometer, the ARCoptix FT-NIR Rocket is the instrument that you need. Thanks to its permanently aligned interferometer and solid-state reference laser, the FT-NIR Rocket offers excellent stability in both intensity and wavelength scales. The FT-NIR Rocket is compatible with light sources and sampling accessories (like fibers, cuvette folder, ...) typically used with array-detector based NIR spectrometers.

The Radial Polarization converter (RPC)from ARCoptix is a worldwide unique device that converts a conventional linearly polarized beam into a beam that has a CONTINUOUS radial or azimuthal Polarization distribution and stable in time. As illustrated in the figure below the orientation of the Polarization vector varies spatially but locally the Polarization state is considered as linear.

The variable spiral plate (VSP) is a passive liquid crystal optical element that is capable to modify a simple laser beam into a vortex beam, radial polarized beam having orital momentum (L=1 or L=2). The VSP is a perfectly transparent optical element without scattering or diffracted ligh losses (apart from the absorption losses of the material). The conversion from homogenous linear polarized beam to, for example, radial, azimuthal (or also lemon, spiral or star distribution) can simply be obtained by placing the VSP in the optical path of your laser beam.

The Arcoptix Liquid crystal variable phase retarder (LCVR) is a transmissive element with an electrically tunable optical phase retardance. Optical retardations are often obtained with piezoelectric mirrors. However, this option is not ideal if robust and compact design is necessary. This product offer an interesting alternative especially when working with polarized light (which is often the case when working with lasers). The ARCoptix phase retarder is a thin transmissive element causing minimal losses and can be simply placed within the optical path of your system.
