1550nm, Pulsed Q-switched fiber laser, 5W

Q-switching is an optical technique used to produce light pulses with extremely high peak power, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q-switching. The technique is mainly applied for the generation of nanosecond pulses of high energy and peak power. The Nuphoton 1.5 micron family of Q-switched pulsed fiber laser generates up to 200 kW power output pulses with 20 to 200 ns variable pulse width. Typical applications of such lasers are material processing (e.g. cutting, drilling, and laser marking), pumping non linear frequency conversion devices and LIDAR applications. This unit available in different packaging options and has dedicated electronic and optical circuitry for pulse generation, amplification and noise management. All the operating parameters can be controlled and monitored through the RS232 serial port.
