CW DPSS Lasers
Diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) lasers are a category of optically pumped lasers, utilizing a diode laser as the excitation source, pumping a laser crystal. DPSS lasers take advantage of the relatively narrow spectral linewidth of diode lasers, in conjunction with their high brightness. Thus maximizing absorption and therefore increasing efficiency.
DPSS lasers also have the added benefit of being far more compact than flashlamp pumped lasers and require less maintenance. Additionally, second, third, and fourth harmonic generation allows the emission of wavelengths from the ultraviolet through the infrared.
Our Products
Our CW DPSS lasers are available in the UV, Blue, Green, Yellow, Red, and NIR wavelength regimes. Available output powers range from 10s of milliwatts up to several watts. Additionally, options for narrow linewidth, single-mode & multimode beam profiles, and free-space & fiber-coupled outputs are available. Finally, OEM DPSS laser packages and modules are available.
Our CW diode-pumped solid-state laser products provide utility in the Industrial, Medical, and Life Science/scientific markets. Therefore, we support flow cytometry, DNA sequencing, confocal fluorescence microscopy, optogenetics, laser doppler velocimetry, particle measurement, holography, interferometry, Raman spectroscopy, and many more applications!
