In booth 2223 (Hall C) at SPIE Photonics West 2016 in San Francisco (16-18 February), engineered materials and optoelectronic component maker II-VI Inc of Saxonburg, PA, USA is presenting a broad portfolio of products from several of its business divisions, showcasing new products and services.
In particular, the subsidiary II-VI Laser Enterprise GmbH of Zurich, Switzerland is showcasing a higher-power 1060nm single-mode laser diode seed module and a new line of high-power multi-bar stack laser diode modules. The new 1060nm laser diode seed module delivers kink-free powers of up to 1.5W in nanosecond pulse operation enabling fiber-laser systems with highly efficient pulse amplification and improved frequency conversions. The expanded portfolio of high-power multi-bar stack laser diode modules includes a new series of tap-water-cooled stacks for medical, pumping and defense applications.
In addition, subsidiary II-VI Suwtech of Shanghai, China is highlighting its new 808nm fiber-coupled diode laser module, which offers output powers from 15W up to 30W. The module is a single-emitter cascaded generic design that allows higher output powers with increased wall-plug efficiency and simplified thermal management.
Finally, II-VI Photop of Fuzhou, China is showcasing a new 5kW laser combiner and new acousto-optic modulators. The laser combiner is available in configurations ranging from 3x1 to 31x1 and is capable of handling pump laser powers of up to 300W to achieve power levels exceeding 5kW. The acousto-optic modulators are designed for pulsed fiber lasers operating at 1 micron wavelength.
