The team at MegaWatt Lasers (MWL) has developed an innovative design for a compact laser tailored to urological applications. This new device has been documented in their paper, entitled “2.1 μm Compact Laser with Fiber Launched Output for Urological Applications.” The Abstract states: For some urological applications such as lithotripsy and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) … Continue reading
MegaWatt Lasers (MWL) has developed a compact 2.1 µm CTH:YAG laser system that has exceeded 200 W of average power at 40 Hz with a peak power of over 10 kW. The company has also demonstrated pulsed repetition frequencies (PRFs) up to 100 Hz. The enabling technology includes the compact four chamber pump module, the … Continue reading
MegaWatt Lasers has developed a compact laser beam combiner, which is a new method that eases the optical, electronic and mechanical design of a high power and repetition rate laser system. This methodology can be scaled to combine a larger number of laser resonators. The beam quality and energy are approximately that of a single … Continue reading
Flashlamp power supplies, using Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) switches to vary pump current pulse width and energy, have been in the market for decades with only incremental improvements in IGBT and gate drive circuits. High voltage power electronics have advanced in large part due to the demand for electric vehicles (EVs). Technological improvements in … Continue reading
Based on their constant product research and development efforts, the staff at MegaWatt Lasers produced a paper, entitled “Compensation of Thermal Lensing in Solid-State Laser Gain Media using Phantom Pulses.” The Abstract of this paper states: Phantom pulses are low energy, high repetition rate pulses used to induce controlled thermal lensing in the laser rod … Continue reading
