Newport Corp., a worldwide leader in laser and photonic solutions to Make, Manage and Measure LightSM, today unveiled the 1936-C and 2936-C optical power and energy meters. With a state-of-the-art analog board for superb sensitivity, accuracy and speed, these latest additions to Newport’s successful family of power meters are capable of power measurements of 11 fW to 20 kW and energy measurements of 7 µJ to 20 kJ. In addition, the devices offer measurement repetition rates up to 10 kHz and frequency measurement of pulses up to 250 kHz.

“The 1936-C and 2936-C instruments are the latest addition to our industry-leading line of power and energy meters,” said Jay Jeong, product manager for Newport Corporation. “By combining the versatility of our 1935-C/2935-C series with the femtowatt sensitivity of our 1931/2931-C series, we have once again set the standard for optical power and energy measurement, and we are pleased to offer our customers the most sophisticated power meters available anywhere in today’s market.”

Newport’s new optical power and energy meters offer a wide range of features and benefits. Users can select from six display colors to match their specific lighting conditions and laser eye war. Data storage is available via an internal 250,000 data point storage buffer or using an external USB flash drive. The 1936/2936-C also offers analog and digital filtering, USB and RS-232 computer interfaces, trigger in/out control with alarm levels, an analog bar graph with 10x zoom, and advanced programming toolkit, and color plotting, statistics and on-board data post-processing. They also support true Root-Mean-Square (RMS) measurements, providing the most accurate RMS value regardless of the shape of the input waveform.


The 1936-C and 2936-C are also compatible with a wide range of Newport detectors. For low power measurements, these new optical power and energy meters can be combined with any one of Newport’s 918D Series Silicon, Germanium or Indium Gallium Arsenide Detectors. For high-power measurements, the 1936/2936-C Series meters can be combined with the company’s 818P thermopile detectors. In addition, these new instruments are also compatible with Newport’s 818E pyroelectric detectors for energy measurements of pulsed laser sources. Finally, pulse repetition rates from single shot to 10 kHz can be measured directly with these instruments, without having to rely on oscilloscope measurements.
