29 Oct 2009 355nm Passively Q-Switched Nd:YAG lasers:
high irradiance, compact head (PNV-B series) When high UV peak power, ultrashort pulses are needed, and space for a laser is tight, the compact 355nm PNV-B is the right fit.
With 300ps pulses that can reach peaks of 90kW, this frequency tripled laser is powered by an exclusively licensed passively Qswitched Nd:YAG microchip especially designed for delivering short, energetic pulses economically and reliably.
The head, just 682cc and 2kg, is designed to fit in tight locations, while the controller can be placed remotely, where space and cooling may be more readily available.
The 355nm PNV-B comes at 18µJ and 28µJ per pulse.
The standard repetition rate for all PNx-B lasers is 1kHz. The lasers can also be externally triggered, from 10Hz to 1kHz. In all cases, the PNx-B PowerChip provides excellent pulse to pulse stability. |
