Q-switched News
Understanding Actively Q-Switched Solid-State Lasers
Sep 4, 2014 — With an increased quantitative understanding of the operation of Q-switched lasers come huge benefits for laser design. This first article in a two-part series focuses on actively Q-switched lasers; the second part, in a later issue, will cover passively Q-switched lasers. Q-switched solid-state lasers have been used since the early 1960s, and their operation principles are theoretically well known. However, many working in the field do not sufficiently understand various details. The
Photonics Industries Expands
BOHEMIA, N.Y., Nov. 8, 2013 — To meet increasing demand in the industrial and scientific markets for its diode-pumped solid-state laser products, Photonics Industries International Inc. has purchased another building less than two miles from its Bohemia headquarters, the company...
DPSS Lasers Overcome Glass Process Challenges
Sep 1, 2012 — Industrial laser glass processing holds promise for an increasing range of applications, including biomedical and solar panel manufacturing. Higher-power and higher-beam-quality lasers continue to emerge on the marketplace, and industry...
Diode-Pumped Solid-State UV Lasers Improve LED Sapphire Wafer Scribing
Oct 14, 2010 — The green movement, energy conservation efforts and global warming headlines have made the world aware of the need for more energy-efficient lighting alternatives. The range of applications for high-brightness LEDs continues to expand. Laser...
Fiber, Disk can Coexist in Industrial Market
SAN JOSE, Calif., May 21, 2010 — The industrial laser market has room for both disk and fiber lasers, and in the future hybrid systems may appear. Those were some of the conclusions of a Market Focus panel discussion on industrial lasers held during the CLEO/QELS 2010 exhibition....
Medal Winner Talks Lasers
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 14, 2009 -- 2009 has been a special year of advancements for lasers, and by October 2010 the power of the sun could be ever-so-briefly generated in the laboratory. Those are some of the points made during an address Monday by renowned laser scientist Robert L....

Powerlase Secures Funding
CRAWLEY, England, April 2, 2009 -- Powerlase Ltd., a manufacturer of powerful nanosecond Q-switched, diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers, announced it has received a "significant" investment from venture capitalists. Powerlase received the undisclosed amount through a funding...
RPMC to Distribute Beamtech Optronics
May 1, 2007 — RPMC Lasers Inc. of O’Fallon, Mo., will distribute lasers from Beamtech Optronics Co. Ltd. of Beijing. Among the technologies produced by Beamtech are Q-switched, flash-pumped and long-pulsed Nd:YAG and other lasers for scientific, medical and...
Slashing the Costs of High-Precision Micromachining
Jun 1, 2004 — Nanosecond pulses from Q-switched, solid-state lasers have long been used in a variety of machining applications. More precise micromachining can be accomplished with the UV pulses from excimer lasers and with femtosecond pulses from ultrafast...
Amplifier Boosts Efficiency of Microlaser
Mar 1, 2004 — Miniature, longitudinally pumped, Q-switched solid-state lasers have relatively low efficiency, in part because much of the diode pump light passes through the laser chip without being absorbed. Recently, scientists at Massachusetts Institute of...
Q-Switched CO2 Laser Intended for Heterodyne-Detection Lidar
Jan 1, 2004 — Waveguide CO2 lasers excited by radio-frequency discharges have found broad application as the sources for laser radar systems. In particular, pulsed heterodyne-detection lidar requires a pair of frequency-offset, pulsed lasers. Q-switched,...
Fiber Laser Interrogates Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
Dec 1, 2003 — Researchers at Texas A&M University in College Station have designed and built a wavelength-scanned, Q-switched, erbium-doped fiber laser that is uniquely suitable for interrogating a series of multiplexed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors even...
