The PM100D2 and PM100D3 Optical Power and Energy Meter Consoles are the cornerstone of Thorlabs' optical power and energy meters and are the digital counterparts to the PM100A analog power meter console. The consoles (and sensors, sold separately) are ideal for use as CW and pulsed source power meters, incoherent optical source power meters, general light power meters, fiber power meters, and more. The display on the PM100Dx power meter features adjustable brightness settings and the option of using a dark, bright, or black background.

The PM100D2 and PM100D3 consoles are compatible with more than 40 photodiode, slim photodiode, integrating sphere, fiber, thermal, and pyroelectric sensors designed for use from the UV to the Mid-IR, with a bandwidth of up to 100 kHz, depending on the sensor and settings. The PM100D3 console is also compatible with Thorlabs’ thermal position and power sensors.

• Responsivity

• S120VC

The S120VC power head is designed for general purpose optical power measurements. The head is optimized for small thickness to fit in tight spaces. The high sensitive photodiode with large active area in combination with a reflective, diffused ND filter enables power measurements up to 50 mW in free-space and fiber-based applications. A removeable annular UV/VIS viewing target allows conveniently centering the measured beam to the active area of the photo-diode. The target absorbs light from 200 to 525 nm.

• S130VC

The S130VC with its slim design of only 5mm at the detector side is perfect to fit into tight optical setups. The ruggedized aluminum head with its large active area silicon photodiode can be held by hand or can be mounted with its 8-32 and M4 threaded mounting holes to posts and post holders.

A slideable ND filter enlarges the power range by approximately factor 100; the position of the filter is automatically recognized by the connected console after a few seconds for calculating the power level with the right responsivity value.

The S130VC is compatible with all new Thorlabs display units. A non-volatile memory in the sensor connector contains sensor information data and the NIST and PTB traceable calibration data.

• S170C

The S170C Microscope Power Sensor Head is designed to measure the illumination power in microscopes. The housing shares dimensions with a microscope slide and fits standard microscope objective stages in both upright and inverted setups. The sensor can handle a wide power range from less than 10 nW to 150 mW in the specified wavelength range.

• S175C

The S175C Microscope Power Sensor Head is designed to measure the illumination power in microscopes. The housing shares dimensions with a microscope slide and fits standard microscope objective stages in both upright and inverted setups. The thermal sensor can handle a wide power range from less than 100 μW to 2 W in the specified wavelength range.

The power head features a large, high sensitivity thermal detector with a broadband absorber coating. The detector is protected by an easily cleanable even glass window with a refraction index of n = 1.52 that allows the usage of focusing liquids.
To align and focus the beam in inverted setups, an alignment mark is laser engraved to the bottom of the sensor housing.

• Absorption

• NS170C

The NS170C sensor is designed to measure the relative peak power of two-photon lasers by utilizing a second-order nonlinear β-BBO crystal to convert incident ultrafast NIR pulses into their visible second harmonic. Shortpass filters underneath the β-BBO crystal reject the residual NIR light, allowing only the second harmonic light to transmit down to a large area silicon photodiode sensor. At the entrance of the sensor is a 170 µm thick cover glass sealed to the sensor housing, allowing the sensor to be used with dry, water immersion, and oil immersion objectives. The working distance from the top of the cover glass to the β-BBO crystal is 0.22 mm.
