Diffusion Bonded Laser Crystals With Improved Thermal Performance Size: 1-150mm

What are diffusion bonded crystals?

Diffusion bonded crystals are composed of a laser crystal and other undoped materials. They are optically contacted first and then bonded further under high temperature. Diffusion bonded crystals are able to significantly mitigate thermal lensing effect of laser crystals, thus providing integral components for compact lasers. Photonchina has been supplying standard assembly and special customized bonding crystals for customers in various applications. These diffusion bonded composite crystals have different wedge structures, Brewster angles, etc. It is mainly used to effectively reduce the thermal effect of solid-state high-power lasers.

Diffusion bonding production in Photonchina:

1)Optical contact between the crystals to be bonded.
2)Increase the temperature of crystals to 2/3 of the melting point in a gradual way and exert pressure to combine the two parts together.
3) Hold on the bonded crystals for a certain period at this high temperature, diffusion effect takes place.
4)Cooling slowly the crystals (24 hours) down to room temperature.


Features:
1)Improved and enhanced thermal performance.
2)Lower thermal lens effect of end surfaces.
3)Increased output power of laser crystals.
4)High damage threshold.
5)Compact size.

Applications:
1)Industrial laser.
2)Biomedical laser, medical laser, beauty laser;
3)Semiconductor pump.
4)High-power operations.
5)Laser ranger finder.
6)High power laser system.
7)Laser Lidar.
