1um diameter holes, 1 µm deep using 532 nm.

These short-pulsed lasers combine the advantages of fiber laser technology and the high energies of solid state diode pumped free space amplifiers. Robust fiber based laser technology makes the APL series a good solution for a variety of cold micromachining and imaging applications. These compact, ultrafast lasers are good for various cold micromachining needs and deliver the highest precision at an affordable price.

Bone ablation.

The APL’s 1064nm laser platform allows it to be tailored to various power, pulse energy and repetition rates needed for a variety of industrial, scientific, and medical applications. The IR is sufficient for most micromachining applications.

The APL-500-1064 is available with 5 ps pulses and 25 µJ of energy at 10 KHz with 0.5 W of average power at 500kHz. The APL-4000-1064 is available with <10 ps pulses and 150 µJ of energy at 10 KHz with 4 W of average power at 500 kHz.
