HNx PicoSpark™ Series Amplified Microchip DPSS Lasers

Product information "HNx PicoSpark™ Series Amplified Microchip DPSS Lasers"

532, 1064 nm; Output Energy >45, >72 µJ; Repetition Rate >70 kHz; Peak Power >100, >200 kW; Pulse Width <0.65 ns

Teem Photonics’ HNx PicoSpark™ Series of amplified microchip DPSS lasers combines multi-watt average output power level with high repetition rate and exceptional pulse characteristics to provide the best price/quality ratio for micromachining applications.

Passively Q-switched (PQS) microchip laser technology and fiber amplification are brought together, delivering pulses with hundreds of kW peak power and hundreds of GW per cm² power density in a sealed and air-cooled, compact package – with the controller included.

This Master Oscillator Fiber Amplifier (MOFA) architecture notably offers full control over the pulse energy (or peak power) while leaving unchanged the pulse width and pulse shape . An Acousto Optic Modulator (AOM) option is also available to offer a rapid control of the repetition rate without distortion of the pulse and high energy stability from the first pulse on.

While the HNP-70F amplified laser produces 550 ps pulses of 1064 nm light at 70 kHz with an average power reaching 5 W, the HNG-70F amplified laser produces sub-500 ps pulses of 532 nm light at 70 kHz with an average power reaching 4 W. The lasers operate with a single emission frequency.

Key Features:

  • Wavelengths: 532, 1064 nm
  • Ultra-short Pulses, Pulse Width Down to 500 ps (<0.65 ns)
  • High Repetition Rate >70 kHz (Can Be Factory-set to up to 100 kHz With Lower Energy per Pulse)
  • AOM Option @532 nm
  • Peak Power >200 kW at 1064 nm (>100 kW at 532 nm)
  • Excellent Beam Quality: Beam Profile Gaussian TEM00, M²<1.2
  • Efficient, Air-cooled
  • Sealed Package, Long Life
  • Output Energy: >45 µJ, >72 µJ

ANx PicoOne/PicoMega Series Amplified Microchip DPSS Lasers
266, 355, 532, 1064 nm; Output Energy >1, >10, >25 µJ; Repetition Rate >70, 100, 150 kHz; Peak Power >6, >15, >38 kW; Pulse Width <0.65, <0.17 ns Teem Photonics’ ANx PicoOne and PicoMega amplified DPSS laser series is based on a microchip seeder and an efficient MOFA (Master Oscillator Fiber Amplifier) amplification stage. These lasers produce 650 or even 170 ps pulses at frequencies in excess of 100 kHz with a peak power exceeding 38 kW at 1064 nm. The laser operates with a single emission frequency. The Passively Q-switched (PQS) microchip laser technology and fiber amplification brought together with this laser series offers full control over the pulse energy (or peak power) while leaving unchanged the pulse width and pulse shape. Other seeders may also be used if different characteristics are required. The ANP-20E PicoOne amplified laser produces pulses of 1064 nm light with a nearly Gaussian beam output and an average power reaching 1.75 W, while the ANG-10E PicoOne amplified laser produces pulses of 532 nm light with an average power reaching 700 mW. Variants with 355 nm and 266 nm output are available on request, please contact AMS Technologies for detailed performance. Using the same platform as the PicoOne Series, the ANG-150P-000 PicoMega amplified laser brings passive Q-switching to a new realm. It generates ultra-short pulses (down to 120 ps) at repetition rates reaching 150 kHz. From LIDAR to high-throughput processing – in applications where ultra-short pulse width is a “must”, the PicoMega laser has a low cost of ownership compared to more complex ps lasers. It can be used as a seeder in applications where still higher power is needed.
