Photonics Industries (open new window)

High repetition rate pulsed ns and ps DPSS lasers operating all in the IR, visible, UV and DUV. Most of our non IR lasers make use of our proprietary intracavity harmonic generation for optimal efficiency.

Our ns lasers are available using YAG, Vanadate and YLF so you are sure of it delivering the maximum energy at your required rep rate. 10-25ns lasers may be operated from single shot to 150kHz, 10-15ps lasers operate at a fixed 80MHz rep rate. The DC and DS systems are end pumped producing an outstanding near diffraction limited (M2<1.1) beam.
