Photon Systems was founded in 1997 to develop, manufacture and sell innovative new deep UV lasers and incoherent light sources and associated instruments based on these enabling source technologies. The founders were previously the founders of Omnichrome Corp., a successful manufacturer of helium-cadmium and air-cooled ion lasers and forensic instruments for over 15 years, which was acquired by Melles Griot in 1997. Photon Systems is located in Covina, California in the San Gabriel Valley, about 45 minutes north east of Los Angeles International Airport.
Our website is intended to be a resource for information not only about our lasers and systems but also about the applications for which they are primarily intended. We have tutorials and application notes about our lasers as well as about UV Raman spectroscopy, capillary electrophoresis with laser induced native fluorescence, liquid chromatography with LIF, forensics, fiber gratings and other applications.
