tissue welding
The use of a surgical laser instead of sutures or staples to close a wound or rejoin severed blood vessels.
laser diode module
A laser diode module is a compact device that incorporates a laser diode, optics, and often other components into a single...
keyhole welding
The process of binding or attaching larger metal sheets by laser welding. The effect is generated by higher power densities...
coaxial gas
A jet of inert gas along a laser welding beam's axis that cools, protects or cleans the work surface.
femtosecond laser
A femtosecond laser is a type of laser that emits ultrashort pulses of light with durations on the order of femtoseconds,...
pulsed welding
A type of laser welding that produces short-duration vapor pockets without buildup of heat in the part, useful for parts...
remote laser welding
A robotic process commonly employed by automakers that enables high-speed and flexible production throughput by using...
blue diode laser
A blue diode laser is a type of semiconductor laser that emits light in the blue wavelength range of the electromagnetic...
hard seal
The process of sealing laser components by means of frit seals, welding or bonding rather than using epoxy.
power density
In laser welding or heat treating, the instantaneous laser beam power per unit area. This parameter is key in determining...

GaAlAs laser
A GaAlAs laser is a type of semiconductor laser diode that emits light in the near-infrared region of the electromagnetic...
sapphire optical fiber
Sapphire optical fiber is a type of optical fiber made from single-crystal sapphire, which is a form of aluminum oxide...
laser crystal
A laser crystal, also known as an active medium or gain medium, is a solid-state material used in the construction of...
conduction welding
A type of laser welding of thin materials using a defocused or low-power carbon dioxide laser beam. The energy is absorbed...
fiber laser
A fiber laser is a type of laser in which the active gain medium is an optical fiber doped with rare-earth ions such as...
YAG crystal
A YAG crystal refers to a solid-state crystal made of yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG), which is a synthetic crystalline...
ultrasonic
Ultrasonic refers to sound waves with frequencies higher than the upper audible limit of human hearing, typically above...
laser welder
A system that uses the heat from a pulsed laser to weld metals. Because of the rapidity and localization in which the...
Nd:YAG laser
Nd:YAG laser refers to a solid-state laser that utilizes neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:Y3Al5O12) as the gain...
