Choosing the right optical elements for your mid-infrared laser applications

Laser systems operating in near infrared (from 0.75 μm to 1 μm) and short-wave infrared (between 0.9 μm and 2.5 μm) are widely used in many applications. As a result, laser experts are well acquainted with the common optical components such as lenses, windows, beam splitters, mirrors, polarizers and filters. Materials such as fused silica, BK7,…

Selective laser processing Part 1: Optical fiber laser stripping

Manufacturing processes are constantly evolving and the complexity of the devices to be produced continues to grow. In the microelectronics, medical, and photonics industries, most devices include a stacking of various layers made of different materials. Each layer must be processed individually to ensure a good performance of the device. This is where selective laser…
