OEM Ultraviolet Laser is optimized for low beam divergence.
August 25, 2008 -
Frequency-tripled DPSS (diode pumped solid state) laser, MATRIX(TM) 355 BE, integrates beam expander within sealed laser head, resulting in output beam diameter of 2.2 mm and divergence of 0.5 mrad. RoHS-compliant product is offered with 1 or 2 W average power and pulse repetition rates up to 60 kHz. It suits precision applications in materials processing and marking, such as stereolithography, LCD/FPD titling, thin film ablation, internal glass marking, and semiconductor scribing.

OEM Ultraviolet Laser Delivers Low Beam Divergence
Santa Clara, Calif., August 13, 2008 - The new MATRIX(TM) 355 BE from Coherent, Inc. (Santa Clara, CA) (Nasdaq: COHR) is a frequency-tripled DPSS (diode pumped solid state) laser that delivers a unique combination of low output noise and low beam divergence. Specifically, this is the first OEM UV laser to incorporate an integral beam expander within the sealed laser head, which results in an output beam diameter (1/e2) of 2.2 mm and a divergence of only 0.5 mrad. This low divergence is an advantage in many OEM applications, especially those having particularly long beam delivery paths or requiring high NA focusing. The new laser is offered with a choice of 1 or 2 watts of average power and pulse repetition rates as high as 60 kHz.
As with other MATRIX lasers, the MATRIX 355 BE is fully RoHS compliant and backed by an 18 month/10,000 hour warranty. The MATRIX 355 BE is optimized to deliver long-lifetime operation for precision applications in materials processing and marking, such as stereolithography (rapid prototyping), LCD/FPD titling, memory repair, thin film ablation, internal glass marking, cold marking of plastics and semiconductors, and semiconductor scribing.
