Compact sealed waveguide RF excited CO2-laser. Maximum of average power is 2 W, pulse power – up to 30 W.
Waveguide length is 225 mm.
Laser works in pulse-periodic mode.
If necessary, perhaps water cooling.
On the customer's request for the compact СО2-laser can be realized additional selection on lengths of waves of СО2 using intracavity diffraction grating.
Applications:
— as a laser source in spectral range 10.51…10.67 µm, including as a laser source with a wavelength of 10.6 µm for insulation gas leakage detector SF6 LaserGasTest.
