in Jena, Germany, Jenoptik has received a $4.4 million order for diode-pumped green
thin-disk lasers suitable for medical use. This year and next, Jenoptik’s
Lasers & Material Processing Div. will deliver the units to an undisclosed German
manufacturer. The company said that since 1999, it has produced approximately 2000

are in use worldwide. Emitting light at 532 nm, the devices are suitable for integration
into laser therapy systems. They can be applied in ophthalmology, dermatology, surgery
and urology. The Jenoptik Group also supplies optical modules and systems as well
