collimated radiation (EY-series)
• Modular stack of 1 cm bars actively cooled, for
cw operation
• Highly reliable strained layer InGa(Al)As/GaAs
material with MTTF > 10000 h
• Low thermal resistance using mini coolers
• Flexible stack design, integration of up to
60 bars
• Optional alternative bar-to-bar spacing values
available
• Bar replacement capability for repair / upgrade
• Low smile (< 1 m), and low mechanical
tolerances
• Coolant inlet/outlet at bottom/side
• Extendable to two-dimensional stacks, TN, TY
resp.

Applications
• Pumping of solid state lasers (Nd: YAG,
Yb: YAG, …)
• Direct industrial applications (soldering, surface
treatment, marking, …)
• Heating, illumination
• Medical and printing applications
Safety Advices
Depending on the mode of operation, these
devices emit highly concentrated non visible
infrared light which can be hazardous to the
human eye. Products which incorporate these
devices have to follow the safety precautions
given in IEC 60825-1 “Safety of laser products”.
Other wavelengths in the range of 780 nm … 980 nm are available on request.
