The basis of a solid-state diode laser is, of course, the diode. Laser diodes can have different emission wavelength—most of them have between 405 nm to 808 nm. The diodes usually have TO3, TO5, TO9, ...

[Jeshua Lacock] from 3DTOPO owns a large-format CNC (4’x8′, or 1.2×2.4 m), that he strongly feels is lacking laser-cutting capabilities. The frame is there, and a 150 W CO2 laser tube has been sitting ...

High-power diode laser side pumped modules SP17 & SP18 can offer peak power of 30kW and 5kW respectively while achieving higher small signal gain (SSG: >30 for SP18, >55 for SP17>55), and better ...

Lasertel, a specialist subsidiary of defense and engineering technology giant Leonardo, has been awarded a $1 million “Phase 1” contract to participate in the US Defense Advanced Research Projects ...

Many hobbies seem to have a subset of participants who just can’t leave well enough alone. Think about hot rodders, who squeeze every bit of power out of engines they can, or PC overclockers, who ...

This innovative laser diode from Opnext offers the highest optical output power on the market at a visible lasing wavelength of 642nm. It supersedes Opnext’s HL6366DG series high power red laser ...
