When Light Conversion says their products are reliable, they mean it! Take a look at the PHAROS stability graphs (above) — pretty stable since 2009! This particular femtosecond laser is owned by their first industrial client and has been working 24/7 for 13 years and counting. The average downtime of all PHAROS lasers owned by this customer is 2%, and … Continue reading
What an amazing photo sent to us by Tony Hallas! This photo is of IC 1805, the nebulosity at the center of the Heart Nebula, which is located about 7500 light years away from Earth! This photograph was taken in California using Chroma astronomy filters. To see more of Tony’s work on his website astrophoto.com, click here. … Continue reading
These days when the electric bills are skyrocketing and the governments encourage to save the energy in every possible way, the relatively low power consumption of Light Conversion lasers might be very advantageous. CARBIDE femtosecond laser (6 W, 100 µJ) consumes only 150 W — less than 20% of the power required by a typical toaster (~800 W). … Continue reading
Pulse width is an important parameter of the pulsed laser. The measurement result is an important factor affecting the single pulse energy. At present, biased photoelectric detectors are commonly used in industrial production and scientific research to test the pulse width, convert optical signals into electrical signals, and read the waveforms and related parameters through … Continue reading
