Interesting notes on laser technology.
Co2 laser beam temperature.
The antireflection ar coated end caps have a diameter of 6 mm and a length of 5 mm.
Housing temperature will exceed 40 c above 2 w input power.
Carbon dioxide lasers are the highest power continuous wave lasers that are currently available.
The carbon dioxide laser co 2 laser was one of the earliest gas lasers to be developed.
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.
It was invented by kumar patel of bell labs in 1964 and is still one of the most useful.
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.
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.
The closer location from the laser heating is defined the higher mean temperature is occurred.
Total integrated backscatter as a fraction of entrance beam power.
Winter maintenance of co2 laser cutting machine.
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.
The ratio of output power to pump power can be as large as 20.
So now that my laser cutter is up and running i ve started to notice the effect of water temperature on laser output.
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.
In fact the anti high temperature in summer and freezing in winter are important.
The mean temperature of 90 plane is 397 8 and 45 plane is 960 9.
Caution should be taken when using this beam trap with laser beams above 2 w as it will become hot to the touch.
For each end cap splice the beam profile of the hollow core fiber has been preserved.
Performance of individual units may differ due to material variability.
Splice repeatability was achieved by using temperature and beam position control for the laser splicing process.
That a laser beam can have no temperature.
I haven t really been able to find what the optimal operating temp range for a sealed co2 laser is.
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.
