Continuous Wave DPSS Ruby Laser: World First from Elliot Scientific & KLASTECH

13 May 2009

The World’s First Continuous Wave (CW) Diode Pumped Solid State (DPSS) laser that outputs at the significant ‘ruby’ wavelength of 694.3 nm, opening up new possibilities, is now available through us.

The CRESCENDO, from KLASTECH, will be initially available with powers of up to 150 mW. Future designs offering up to 500 mW are under development. The current units output in single longitudinal mode with typically less than 1 MHz line width and a coherence length in excess of 100 m. An exceptionally low noise figure of under 0.05% rms is allied with a near perfect Gaussian beam that has a pointing stability of < 10 µrad/°C, allowing the laser to meet the requirements of a range of applications that cannot be usually met by typical diode-based lasers. For example, bio-fluorescence, flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, holography, interferometry, disc mastering, haematology, food sorting, spectroscopy and retinal imaging. Please contact us for more information.
