manufactures diode-pumped, solid state lasers based on a number of standard,
field-proven components that can be arranged to provide a wide variety of
operating configurations. Our current products are based on over 20 years of innovative efforts in
developing laser systems. For more details, and some background on the
evolution of our current product line, see History
of Products at Q-Peak. Our systems are designed to produce cw and pulsed average powers of 10 W and above in the near-infrared (IR) wavelength region (around 1000 nm) with a near-diffraction-limited beam quality. Outputs in the green and ultraviolet (UV) regions are available, at present only in a pulsed format. Ongoing research will soon allow us to provide other wavelengths, primarily further in the IR. In contrast to some other laser vendors, through the use of standard components Q-Peak is capable of providing custom, one-off systems to meet a customer's specific needs, as well as manufacture quantities of the same system. Laser systems are comprised of a laser head, providing the laser output (or outputs), a power supply/control unit that powers the laser head as well as necessary interlock functions, and a cooling unit to maintain the laser crystal and diode pump sources at a constant temperature, as well as remove heat from other components in the laser head. Our core technology is based on a diode-pumped Gain Module developed to operate with a number of different solid state laser materials. With the Gain Module technology and appropriate laser resonator optics mounted in a laser head, we can generate cw or repetitively Q-switched, pulsed laser-output formats. In addition, the Gain Modules can be used amplify the cw or Q-switched outputs of Gain-Module oscillators, or amplify other sources, such as low-power mode-locked lasers or sub-nanosecond, Q-switched microchip lasers. We can also provide standard nonlinear optics components for harmonic generation into the visible and UV wavelength regions. We do not sell Gain Modules on an individual basis, only as part of a laser system. Please click on the links below to find out more about the components in our laser systems.
