Tunable Solid-state Laser. Spectroscopy Experiments with Ti:sapphire Lasers.

Diode laser--pumped solid-state lasers.

Diode laser-pumped solid-state lasers are efficient, compact, all solid-state sources of coherent optical radiation. Major advances in solid-state laser technology have historically been preceded by advances in pumping technology. The helical flash lamps used to pump early ruby lasers were superseded by the linear flash lamp and arc lamp now used to pump neodymium-doped yttrium-aluminum-garnet ...

Tunable Far Infrared Laser Spectroscopy

using C02 laser difference generation in metal-insulator-metal diodes either from the difference between a fixed frequency C02 laser and a tunable waveguide laser, or from the difference between two fixed frequency C02 lasers plus microwave sidebands. is being used to make highly accurate FIR frequency measurements of stable species to serve as frequency and wavelength calibration standards; to...

Solid State Lasers for Stereolithography

Stereolithography is a Rapid Prototyping & Manufacturing (RP&M) technique which is used to produce 3 dimensional plastic parts directly out computer files generated by CAD. Stereolithography systems use ultraviolet lasers to solidify liquid resin into the desired form as defined by the CAD file. In recent years, solid state laser technology has reached the point where it can be applied to stere...
