The common configuration for deflecting laser beams in two dimensions is based on two single-axis galvanometric scanners placed perpendicular to each other. Over recent years, these fast scanners have proved to be both very reliable and very accurate. They ...
Spectroscopic measurements on ethylene were performed using a quasi-room-temperature quantum cascade (QC) laser operated in pulsed mode in the 10.3 μm range. Using transmission spectroscopy, a broadening of the ethylene absorption spectrum was observed wit ...
Because of the strong electron-phonon coupling of the emitting 3d orbital in transition-metal (TM) ions, 3d systems exhibit luminescence with typically several hundred nm of spectral bandwidth. TM-ion-doped materials are, therefore, of high interest for ap ...
In order to improve the reliability of micro-spot welding of metal parts in production such as e.g. in electron guns for TV picture tubes, real-time information about the evolution of the welding process should be available to allow on-line modification of ...
We present the design of a highly efficient, pulsed ammonia laser which is optically pumped by a commercial TEA CO2 laser and is line tunable in the spectral range of 780-930 cm(-1). The power, spectral, and temporal characteristics of the laser have been ...
PURPOSE: Examination of morphology in corneal ablation induced by a q-switched Er:YSGG (2.79 mu m) laser and a free-running Er:YAG laser (2.94 mu m). ...
Fabrication and characterization of a current-injected InGaAs-GaAs quantum-wire gain-coupled distributed feedback (DFB) laser operating at 77 K at a wavelength of 923 nm are presented, Threshold current densities in broad area lasers were measured to be as ...
The properties of semiconductor laser diodes for trace gas measurements are reviewed. First, the modulation characteristics of these lasers are discussed. Then, two sensitive spectroscopic methods using a frequency-modulated near-IR laser are presented and ...
By using chemical beam epitaxy at growth temperatures as low as 460-480 degrees C, we have overcome strain relaxation problems that prevented so far the successful use of InAsP quantum wells in 1.55 mu m lasers. Five quantum well InAsP/InGaAsP horizontal c ...
