OCTG Series Scanner Chapter 5: Description
Rev C, April 06, 2016 Page 13
The major components of the OCTG Standard Scanner are an OCTG base module and a
Reference Arm Module if applicable. We recommend also considering other accessories like the OCT-LKx
scan lens kit and the OCT-RAx reference arm adapter.
The following sections describe the two modules and possible accessories in detail.
ATTENTION
Always turn off the light source before changing or adjusting OCTG configuration or
accessories such as the objective, scan lens kit, reference arm adapter, or sample z-spacer.
For Thorlabs OCT base units, turn off the OCT base unit main power to turn off the light
source.
Please con
tact a member of the Thorlabs’ OCT support team to determine if other parts you wish to use are
compatible (see Chapter 11). Any modification or servicing of this system by unqualified personnel renders
the warranty null and void, leaving Thorlabs free of any liability.
5.3.1. OCTG Base Module
The OCTG base module provides high-speed, two-dimensional (X and Y) raster scans of the specimen. The
clear aperture of the scan mirrors used within is Ø 6 mm. The module also contains a high-resolution video
camera for recording the sample during the measurement.
Figure 10 OCT Base Module
The electrical control interface hosts the included Thorlabs electric control cable to connect the scanner with
a Thorlabs OCT base unit. Please contact Thorlabs
’ OCT support (see Chapter 11) for information regarding
the pin configuration.
The optical fiber port is a FC/APC receptacle.
The optical output to the reference arm is equipped with a circular iris aperture which is manipulated using
the reference adjustment knob. In order to adjust the reference intensity, it may be necessary to rotate the
reference length adjustment knob. Rotating clock-wise increases the reference intensity, rotating counter
clock-wise decreases it.
