II-VI Introduces 120W Pump Laser Modules
Wavelength-stabilised module achieves 50 percent more output power than previous device
II-VI has announced the introduction of its 976 nm pump laser modules with up to 120W of wavelength-stabilised output power.
Wavelength-stabilised pump laser modules enable ultrafast fibre lasers to operate with very short pulses for high-precision drilling and marking. II-VI˙s pump laser modules achieve 120 W of output power while precisely maintaining a wavelength of 976 nm over a wide operating temperature range.
Their high power enables fibre lasers to be designed with fewer pump laser modules, thus lowering laser system cost. Their precise wavelength stability lowers the warm-up time and maintenance of laser systems, improving productivity.
"This wavelength-stabilised module achieves 50 percent more output power than that which we introduced only four months ago, demonstrating our rapid technology advances and leadership in the market," said Chris Koeppen, VP of II-VI Industrial Laser Group. "Our vertically integrated modules leverage both the reliability of our GaAs semiconductor laser platform and our state-of-the-art spatial beam combining technology to achieve high efficiency and wavelength-stabilised output powers over an industry-leading operating temperature range of 20 to 45 degrees Celsius."
