  • Lasers Enable Critical Diversification
    That employment picture has changed as radically as the company's capital equipment cache and customer base. In 1981, Chuck Watson, Sr. was welding custom exhaust components for local hot-rodders. Today, that little shop is the classic garage-to-greatness American success story, a 200-person

  • Solid-State Laser Engineering
    The latter factor leads to a large thermally induced birefringence and optical distortion in glass laser rods when they are operated at high average powers.

  • Nonlinear Optics and Solid-State Lasers
    For example, the laser rod surfaces are polished to be concave or the lens could be added into the cavity in order to eliminate the thermal focal effect of laser rod.
  • Photonics
    Therefore, e.g., solid state laser rods for high power applications can be used with Brewster angle end faces.
  • The Physics and Engineering of Solid State Lasers
    The heat generated owing to the above mechanisms and the radial heat flow re- sulting from the cooling process of the laser rod surface together cause the thermal effects in a laser rod.
  • Laser Resonators and Beam Propagation
    … of micro-cavity cross sectional area ray transfer matrix element 2x2 ray transfer submatrix cross sectionalarea of laser beam cross sectional area of beam in active medium electric field normalization constant, waveguide modes apertureheight radius of laser rod outer radius of annular …
  • TEM00 Mode Ho:YLF Laser
    Therefore to depopulate the lower laser level and have the laser operate as a four -level laser, the laser rod must be cooled to liquid nitrogen temperatures.
  • Compensation of thermal lenses in high-power solid-state lasers
    In order to compensate for the thermally induced lenses in high-power laser rods we investigate self-adaptive .
  • High-average-power diode-pumped Yb:YAG lasers
    More recently, using a dual rod configuration consisting oftwo, 5 cm long by 2 mm diameter laser rods with birefringence compensation, we have achieved 1080 W of cw output with an M2 value of 13.5 at an optical-to-optical conversion …
  • Non-edge-ray design: improved optical pumping of lasers
    The merit function of the design process includes not only the transfer efficiency from an extended, 2-D laser diode array, but also the mode coupling of the absorption distribution within a laser rod to its de- sired output mode.
