DPSS lasers News
Alkali Lasers Challenge Thin Disks and Fibers
Mar 1, 2004 — What led you to investigate alkalis as laser materials? I’m an inventor, an applied scientist. I like asking what the problem is and then looking for solutions to it. At any given time, we have an arsenal of lasers and we often try to force them to perform applications they’re by no means ideal for. The advent of diode pumps transformed solid-state lasers into a whole new class of device that was able to address elegantly a whole new set of applications. But keep in mind, this happened...
CO2 Lasers Make the Cut
Jun 1, 2003 — With system revenues well above $2 billion last year, laser cutting remains the major industrial market for high-power laser sources. In fact, advances in machine dynamics and beam delivery systems have led to cutting speeds, and ultimately...
GSI Lumonics Acquires Spectron Laser Systems
May 9, 2003 — BILLERICA, Mass., May 9 -- GSI Lumonics announced it has acquired Spectron Laser Systems, a Rugby, England-based subsidiary of Lumenis Ltd., for $6.3 million in cash, subject to adjustment and the assumption of certain liabilities. Spectron Laser...
Nd:YAG Produces 2.8 W of Blue Light
May 1, 2003 — Researchers at the Institut für Laser Physik at Universität Hamburg in Germany have set a record for blue CW power generated from a diode-pumped solid-state laser, using a new nonlinear crystal, BiB3O6 (BiBO), to frequency-double the 946-nm line of...
Optical Engineering for Beam-Matrix Art
May 1, 2003 — Artistic use of lasers can take various forms. The best-known form is the laser show, which is typically accompanied by music, and uses scanning, diffraction and other effects to project constantly changing patterns on screens or smoke. Another...
Northrop Grumman Delivers Airborne Laser Component
Mar 10, 2003 — REDONDO BEACH, Calif., March 10 -- Northrop Grumman Corp.'s Space Technology sector has delivered the Beacon Illuminator Laser (BILL), a high-power solid-state laser and a key component of the Missile Defense Agency's Airborne Laser (ABL) program....
Coherent Solid-State Lasers Enable Oscar Award-Winning
Jul 1, 2002 — Santa Clara, Calif., April 29, 2002 – Coherent, Inc.’s Compass 315M and Sapphire 460-10 solid-state lasers are at the heart of the Oscar award-winning ARRILASER. Developed by Arnold & Richter Cinetechnik (ARRI) and the Fraunhofer Institute of...
Laser Diodes Headlining in Hollywood
Jun 1, 2002 — Many studios producing this summer's blockbuster films will be using the digital intermediate process, wherein the camera negative is scanned and all postproduction operations -- from editing to special effects and color timing -- are performed in...
Lawrence Livermore Develops 13-kW Solid-State Laser
Nov 1, 2001 — Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, Calif., have delivered a prototype solid-state heat-capacity laser to the US Army's High Energy Laser System Test Facility in White Sands, N.M., for testing. The goal of the project...
Coherent Introduces 15 mW, CW, Green Lasers for Bioinstrumentation and Photofinishing Applications
Jul 11, 2001 — SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 11 -- Coherent Laser Division (CLD) recently introduced the Compass 215M, a diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) continuous-wave (CW) laser that emits at 532 nm. The Compass 215M has been specifically designed as a...
Ion Lasers:
Jul 1, 2000 — When diode-pumped solid-state lasers first appeared in the marketplace during the early 1990s, argon-ion, helium-neon and other classic laboratory lasers seemed doomed. The newer technology was more compact and rugged, allowing researchers freedom...
Compact Laser Chiller Gets the Heat Out
Nov 1, 1998 — 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...
Coherent Joins Precision Laser Consortium
Jun 1, 1998 — Coherent Inc.'s Semiconductor Group in Santa Clara, Calif., has joined the Precision Laser Machining Consortium, a group of 24 companies administered and partially funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Their mission is to develop...
Diode-Pumped Kilowatt Laser Is Brighter, More Powerful
Apr 1, 1998 — With the goal of advancing diode-pumped solid-state laser technology by making lasers brighter and more powerful, TRW Inc. of Redondo Beach, Calif., introduced its newest diode array-pumped kilowatt laser at Photonics West. The company says this...
Microlasers:
Feb 1, 1998 — The progressive replacement of gas lasers and flashlamp-pumped solid-state lasers by more efficient diode-pumped solid-state lasers started in laboratories more than a decade ago. Pumped with a 1-W CW diode laser, passively Q-switched microlasers...
Widely Tunable Diode-Pumped Laser Is on the Horizon
Nov 1, 1997 — A group of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists in Livermore, Calif., has conducted research that could lead to the development of a widely tunable diode-pumped solid-state laser for medical laser systems. The group fabricated...
Fiber Laser Sets a Record
Aug 1, 1997 — MURRAY HILL, N.J. -- A recent demonstration of optical fiber lasers with ultrahigh output powers could have implications for telecommunications, materials processing and medical applications, according to the scientists who developed the technology....
