Compact Laser Chiller Gets the Heat Out

Daniel C. McCarthy

Advances in diode pumping have led to smaller laser heads and smaller power supplies, meeting the growing demands for more compact, portable lasers. As a rule, diode-pumped devices are more efficient than traditional arc or flashlamp-pumped lasers in converting electrical input to light output, resulting in less waste heat for laser chillers to eliminate. The size of chillers, however, has not kept pace with other components. In this Lightbook series laser (355, 532 or 1064 nm) from Light Solutions Corp., the laser head is about the size of a notebook computer; the power supply measures...Read full article
