The most efficient Nd:YAG laser at 10Hz
The SAGA HP is the most efficient and compact flashlamp-pumped
solid-state laser on the market, producing 1.8 J per pulse at 532 nm at
5Hz or 10Hz.
It features pumping chambers with high efficiency diffusive coupling, that
ensures high beam quality and high efficiency.
Its original optical cavity design based on an unstable resonator and a
variable reflectivity mirror enhances energy extraction. The beam
exhibits a very homogeneous Top Hat profile in the near field.
The use of compact housing structure ensures an excellent short and
long term alignment stability.
Different harmonic generators on pre-aligned mounts extend the
wavelength range to the second, third and fourth harmonics. They are
integrated in a temperature regulated housing for optimum long term
performances.
