MixxWave CW & Modulated Laser Wavelength Combiner

Wavelength Combiners (L4Cc & L6Cc)

The Oxxius MixxWave is a laser wavelength combiner that merges multiple laser sources — from 375 nm to 1064 nm — into a single, precisely aligned output beam. Designed for advanced multi-wavelength applications in flow cytometry, confocal microscopy and nanoparticle characterization, the MixxWave combines Oxxius or third-party laser sources into one compact, thermally stable platform. Available in two configurations, the L4Cc (up to 4 lasers) and the L6Cc (up to 6 lasers), it delivers CW and modulated outputs in free space or via optical fiber, with full instrument control through standalone software.

Key features
• L4Cc: up to 4 lasers, 2 AOMs • L6Cc: up to 6 lasers, 2 AOMs
• Combines 375–1064 nm wavelengths
• Up to 4 fiber or free-space outputs
• Integrated electro-mechanical shutters on each port
• Extension modules for port switching, power split, or AOTF modulation

MixxWave Configurations: CW & Modulated, High Power, or Single Frequency?

Oxxius offers the MixxWave combiner in three configurations to match different source types:

  • The CW & Modulated version, covered on this page, is suited for general-purpose multi-wavelength imaging and spectroscopy requiring fine modulation control.
  • The High Power version is built for applications demanding higher optical power per channel, delivered through a multimode fiber.
  • The Single Frequency version is optimized for narrow-linewidth sources used in coherence-sensitive measurement applications.

Why Choose the Oxxius MixxWave?

Manufactured in France with full vertical integration, the Oxxius MixxWave combines low-noise laser sources, thermal stability, and a compact mechanical design engineered for demanding OEM and research environments. Every combiner is factory-aligned and validated for long-term reliability, backed by a 24-month warranty and direct support from Oxxius engineers.
