| 20110244608 | SOLID-STATE LASERS - A method for assembling an optically pumped solid-state laser having an extended cavity. The method includes the steps of providing a casing, mounting a TEC and a base plate in the casing, and mounting a plurality of laser components on the base plate using a UV and heat curing adhesive. Once the laser components are correctly positioned and aligned on the base plate, the adhesive is pre-cured using UV radiation. Final curing of the adhesive is obtained by subjecting the entire laser package to an ambient temperature of at least 100° C. The base plate is preferably selected to have a CTE similar to that of the laser components in order to facilitate the high temperature curing. A preferred material for the base plate is AlSiC. | 10-06-2011 |

| 20090268763 | Frequency Stabilized Laser Source - A laser arrangement is provided, in which a Lyot filter arrangement is operative to effect single mode operation. The birefringent element of the Lyot filter arrangement has a cavity folding mirror on one side thereof and a polarizing element on another side thereof, such that the free spectral range of the Lyot filter is improved. Preferably, the Lyot filter arrangement and the laser gain material are located in different branches of the folded cavity. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20080240177 | Continuous-wave ultraviolet laser - A laser is disclosed, which is suitable for efficient generation of continuous-wave laser light having a wavelength of about 400 nm or less. The short-wavelength light is generated by first frequency-doubling a fundamental wave, and then sum-frequency mixing the frequency-doubled wave and the fundamental wave. The non-linear interactions are effected by means of quasi-phasematching structures inside a resonant cavity where the fundamental wave is circulating. The sum-frequency mixing is effected using second or higher order quasi-phasematching, which allows for wider domains to be inverted for the quasi-phasematching structure compared to first order quasi-phasematching. Preferably, the sum-frequency mixing is effected using periodically poled stoichiometric lithium tantalate (PPSLT) for second or third order quasi-phasematching. | 10-02-2008 |
