Turnkey Diode Laser System Delivers Higher Power and Brightness



Superior Reliability & Performance

Santa Clara, Calif., June 9, 2008 - The newest turnkey diode laser system from Coherent, Inc. (Santa Clara, CA) (Nasdaq:COHR) offers higher output power and brightness than previously available from the company. Specifically, the HB-diode system delivers 75W of power at either 808 nm from a 200 µm core 0.22 NA (numerical aperture) fiber, or 976 nm from a 400 µm core 0.22 NA fiber. The HB-diode system is a fully integrated, microprocessor controlled instrument that operates from 110/220 VAC, and enables user control of diode output through either a front panel keypad or electronic interface, including analog, TTL, RS-232 and RS-485. Other convenience features include air cooling, a rack mounting option, and a coaxial, visible wavelength aiming beam.

The high power and brightness of the new HB-Diode System, together with its reliability and ease of use, make it particularly well suited for applications in materials processing, medical therapeutics and pumping solid-state laser media. These include plastics welding, electronics soldering, solar cell contact soldering, Rb vapor pumping, RFID bonding, plastics marking, heat treating, hard drive arm heating, dermatological and dental treatments and photodynamic therapy.
