Miniaturized Cutting and Drilling Using Picosecond Lasers Sidebar: Using Picosecond Lasers to Produce Disposable Ophthalmic Blades
Traditionally, electrical discharge machining (EDM) or conventional laser tools have been used to manufacture a range of precision medical devices. However, these manufacturing methods cannot be used to achieve the miniature features, precision, surface quality, and yields required for manufacturing microfluidic devices for clinical lab-on-a-chip applications, precision drug-delivery catheters,...
متن کاملHigh-Power High-Brightness Lasers
High power high brightness diode lasers are gaining more and more interest for applications previously dominated by expensive and inefficient solid-state lasers due to their better efficiency, brightness and compactness. The significant fact about conventional high brightness optical sources is that they exhibit about an order of magnitude higher brightness than broad-area semiconductor lasers....
متن کاملHigh power ultrafast lasers
In this article, we review progress in the development of high peak-power ultrafast lasers, and discuss in detail the design issues which determine the performance of these systems. Presently, lasers capable of generating terawatt peak powers with unprecedented short pulse duration can now be built on a single optical table in a small-scale laboratory, while large-scale lasers can generate peak...
متن کاملCharacterization of High-Power Lasers
This paper discusses methods for characterization of high power lasers. Specifically, these methods have been developed for the High Energy Laser Joint Technology Office and used for independent, government-sponsored testing in the 25 and 100 kW phases of the Joint High Power Solid State Laser program. Primarily this paper addresses measurement of power and beam quality.
متن کاملPicosecond and sub-picosecond pulse generation in semiconductor lasers
Generation of short optical pulses in semiconductor lasers is of practical interest for an increasing number of applications. It is also of fundamental interest because of its tight relation with the field of semiconductor laser dynamics. After an introductory review, we compare the performances of gain-switching, Q-switching and mode-locking techniques. The comparison is illustrated by experim...
