A co2laser beam as an electro magnetic light wave at a wavelength of 10 600 nm contains a certain energy which is partially absorbed by the material.
Co2 laser beam temperature.
The feedback method employs a sensor for laser beam power and cmos cameras as sensors for fiber luminescence which is directly related to glass temperature.
They are also quite efficient.
Performance of individual units may differ due to material variability.
The co2 laser splicer with this type of feedback system provides a consistent platform for the fiber laser and bio medical industry for fabrication of fused glass components such as tapers.
It was invented by kumar patel of bell labs in 1964 and is still one of the most useful.
The ratio of output power to pump power can be as large as 20.
Carbon dioxide lasers are the highest power continuous wave lasers that are currently available.
Interesting notes on laser technology.
Caution should be taken when using this beam trap with laser beams above 2 w as it will become hot to the touch.
So now that my laser cutter is up and running i ve started to notice the effect of water temperature on laser output.
Housing temperature will exceed 40 c above 2 w input power.
By a carbon dioxide laser tube it is water cooled we had better control the temperature 25 degrees because at this temperature when the energy of the strongest.
The carbon dioxide laser co 2 laser was one of the earliest gas lasers to be developed.
That a laser beam can have no temperature.
In fact the anti high temperature in summer and freezing in winter are important.
For each end cap splice the beam profile of the hollow core fiber has been preserved.
Total integrated backscatter as a fraction of entrance beam power.
The antireflection ar coated end caps have a diameter of 6 mm and a length of 5 mm.
More specifically at one stage the water loop developed a leak and the laser was running very warm and the power drop was quite significant.
Splice repeatability was achieved by using temperature and beam position control for the laser splicing process.
The mean temperature of 180 plane from the laser heating is the lowest as 197 4 because the material removal plane is far from laser heating.
The closer location from the laser heating is defined the higher mean temperature is occurred.
Winter maintenance of co2 laser cutting machine.
Heat is the random motion of matterparticles atomic or molecular particles however the laser beam itself is not made of matter but of photons the so called light particles which have no mass i e.
