The mirror module blocks the heat and stray light
The LAX-C100 is the reasonable xenon light source with xenon 100W lamp. The proprietary mirror module blocks the heat and stray light, and only desired wavelength range is obtainable. The LAX-C100 can also emit monochromatic light by the bandpass filter.
*Mirror module, filter holder and optical filters are optional.
Monochromatic Light with Optical Filters
Monochromatic light output by optical filter
- Bright monochromatic light
- Instead of multiple wavelength laser
- Output beam is brighter than monochromator
UV Light Source
UV light output without IR heat
- Bright UV light
- It is also possible to obtain the desirable UV wavelength range with
the combination of optical filters
Mirror Module (Option)
This sophisticated optical unit consists of four cold mirrors to block unwanted energy from xenon lamp and only desired throughput is obtainable. The LAX-C100 offers 4 types of mirror module.
Filter Holder (Option)
There are 2 types of the filter holder.
1. 25mm dia. x 2 pcs.
2. 50mm dia. or 50 x 50mm x 1 pc.
Optical Filters
Asahi Spectra produces varieties of precise optical filters to help modification of spectral output from the LAX-C100. Our bandpass filter series allow users to obtain the desirable spectral throughput to suit wide variety of applications more precisely while eliminating unwanted energy.

Light Guide
The illuminating light from the LAX-C100 is delivered to the point of use by the light guide efficiently.
Collimator Lens
Collimator lens reduces the divergence of light from the light guide and provide uniform light output. It is suitable for directional backlighting which requires clear silhouette of an object.
