Oscillator-amplifier excimer laser

Oscillator-amplifier excimer laser

The Compex 150 oscillator-amplifier excimer laser can, depending on the fill gas, operate around 193, 248, or 308 nm. Applications include lidar, plasma x-ray generation, and combustion analysis. Pulse energies range from 250 to 500 mJ at low repetition rates; maximum average power at the 50-H¥repetition rates ranges as high as 25 W. Beam divergence is 0.2 mrad. The laser comes with a halogen source for generating fluorine or chlorine gas internally, which offers safety and lifetime advantages to pressurized halogen tanks.
