Laser Shutter is used for single or multiple laser exposure interruption. It can be used with high power lasers in custom spectral region from UV to IR. Operation of Laser Shutter is based on the fast galvanomagnetic scanner. Scanner is incorporated in nondispersive optical system assuring blanking speed better than parts of milliseconds. This design does not use any dispersive optical elements (lenses, prisms).
