Helium Neon Lasers Have a Multicolored Future

From CVI Melles Griot
 

 
The market lifecycle of a high-technology product is typically quite short. Several types of gas lasers, however, including argon-ion, helium-neon (HeNe), and carbon dioxide lasers, continue to enjoy high sales volume in diverse applications even after many years in the marketplace (see Laser Focus World , January 1995, p. 54)

Laser mounts are devices that keep a laser in position on a optical table. Learn more about Laser Mounts
Lasers are devices that produce intense beams of monochromatic, coherent radiation. The word "laser" is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Search by Specification | Learn more about Lasers
Diode lasers use light-emitting diodes to produce stimulated emissions in the form of coherent light output. They are also known as laser diodes. Search by Specification | Learn more about Diode Lasers
Ion lasers function by stimulating the emission of radiation between two levels of an ionized gas. They provide moderate to high continuous-wave output of typically 1 mW to 10 W. Search by Specification | Learn more about Ion Lasers
Helium neon (HeNe) lasers have an emission that is determined by neon atoms by virtue of a resonant transfer of excitation of helium. They operate continuously in the red, infrared and far-infrared regions and emit highly monochromatic radiation. Search by Specification | Learn more about Helium Neon Lasers
