QCL Primer: History, Characteristics, Applications
Feb 18, 2016 — The versatility of quantum cascade lasers makes them a good choice for the mid-infrared region. Since its first successful operation in 1960 at Hughes Research Labs, the laser technology has been at the center of innovation and research. Semiconductor lasers first made their appearance in 1962 when Robert N. Hall introduced the first gallium arsenide laser diode.1 Early semiconductor lasers would not be practical to use due to requiring cryogenic temperatures to operate. In 1970, Izuo
Diode-Pumped Lasers: Performance, Reliability Enhance Applications
Jan 1, 2015 — The latest technology advances take diode-pumped solid-state lasers into new realms of power and wavelength, enabling many new applications. Neodymium-doped crystals and glasses such as Nd:YAG (neodymium:yttrium aluminum garnet) have long been used...
Laser Diodes: Specification Guidelines
Mar 8, 2009 — While some design engineers know exactly what they need from their laser diode, others may choose a partner to navigate what can be a complex development process. Laser diode manufacturers...
