Jenoptik shows new laser and optic products at Photonics West 2016

In order to provide solutions for the fast growing healthcare and life science market, Jenoptik now bundles all healthcare technologies in a new Healthcare & Industry division. Especially laser sources for healthcare are an essential part of the company’s core product portfolio. With decades of experience Jenoptik manufactures lasers for industrial and medical applications. Ten years ago, Jenoptik presented the first femtosecond laser for industrial usage, being one of the pioneers in the fast growing ultra-short pulse laser market. The extraordinary quality and reliability of Jenoptik laser sources is demonstrated in sales of more than 20,000 disk-based lasers for ophthalmology applications.

Highly-requested single emitters radiating at 808 nm added to the portfolio

Jenoptik adds three new single emitters to its portfolio. The new products emit at a wavelength of 808 nm and can be used as pump sources of solid-state lasers with lower power, for diode direct and micro-marking applications, metrology and instrumentation, as well as for manufacturing of compact near infrared (NIR) light sources.

The power-scaled emitter chips have a cavity length of 2 and 4 mm and apertures of 95, 100, and 200 µm, all being based on TM-polarized material. Short-cavity devices have an output power of 4 Watt with a wall-plug efficiency of more than 60 percent. Long-cavity devices with 100 µm-wide emitters run at 7 W and devices with 200 µm-wide emitters provide 10 W output power with wall-plug efficiencies of about 55 percent. Furthermore, first results of working on 5-emitter bars operating at 40 W will be present.

Jenoptik’s enlarged single emitter portfolio provides the company’s customers with more design flexibility and allows for even more cost-efficient system layouts.
