Compact high energy nanosecond lasers
Compact Flash-lamp Pumped Q-switched Nd:YAG Lasers NL300 series

NL300 series electro-optically Q-switched nanosecond Nd:YAG lasers produce high energy pulses with 3 – 6 ns duration. Pulse repetition rate can be selected in range of 5 – 20 Hz. NL30×HT models are designed for maximum energy extraction from the active element. Up to 1200 mJ pulse energy can be produced at a 5 Hz pulse repetition rate.

A wide range of harmonic generator modules for generation up to a 5th harmonic is available. Harmonic generators can be combined with attenuators that allow smooth output energy adjustment without changing other laser parameters, i.e. pulse duration, pulse-to-pulse stability, divergence or beam profile. For a more detailed description of harmonic and attenuator modules please check our harmonic generators selection guide.

The extremely compact laser head is approximately 480 mm long and can be fitted into tight spaces. The laser power supply has a 330 × 490 mm footprint. Easy access to the water tank from the back side of the power supply facilitates laser maintenance. Replacement of flashlamp does not require removal of pump chamber from the laser cavity and does not lead to possible misalignment.

The powering unit can be configured with water-to-water or water-to-air heat exchangers. The latter option allows for laser operation without the use of tap water for cooling. For customer convenience the laser can be controlled via PS with LabView™ drivers (included) or a remote control pad. Both options allow easy control of laser settings.
