Laser and diodes G2 lasers
Mobius Photonics, a producer of short- pulsed fibre laser sources, has announced the introduction of G2 – a family of short- pulsed, high-power, high-repetition-rate fibre laser sources that can produce either ultraviolet, green or infrared output. G2 lasers are intended for applications that demand precision processing and rapid throughput, including microvia drilling, stereolithography and printed circuit board trenching. They are offered in three standard configurations – one that can produce up to 60W of 1064nm output; a second that produces up to 45W at 532nm; and a third that produces up to 30W at 355nm. The systems feature pulse widths tunable
between two and six nanoseconds and repetition rates adjustable up to 2MHz. Pulse widths remain consistent with changes in repetition rate. Output is diffraction- limited. A modular product design facilitates field servicing and upgrades as well as custom configurations.

TopMode
Toptica is launching the TopMode series of lasers, which are all available in red wavelengths and are suitable for holography, interferometry and metrology. The company says the TopMode has the highest single-frequency output power of any direct diode-based system in the world, providing 30mW at 633nm (free beam) and a 20m coherence length.

1550nm single mode laser diode
Frankfurt Laser Company has launched a series of fibre-coupled laser diodes at 1550nm, with 50kHz line width and an output of 100mW. The laser diode comes in a hermetically sealed butterfly housing that incorporates TEC, a thermistor, a monitor photodiode with single mode, and polarisation maintaining fibre output available.
The fibre is terminated with a FC/APC
connector. It operates in a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +70°C and is suitable for applications with harsh environments.
Other potential applications include direct diode frequency doubling, gas sensing, interferometry, laser seeding, low-noise pumping, metrology, Raman spectroscopy, and remote sensing.

Near-Infrared Diffuse Reflection Analysis of Fruit
By Yvette Mattley, PhD, Ocean Optics
A convenient, non-destructive NIR spectroscopy method is evaluated for determining the quality of the fruit hidden beneath the peels of mangoes and avocados.
FUSION ENERGY PROJECT USES SPECTROMETERS
By Avantes
Culham may be just a small town in the English countryside, but it hosts a research facility that might change the world as we know it. The Joint European Torus (JET), based in Oxfordshire, researches how to use fusion energy in daily life. Energy that is environmental friendly, safe and available in almost unlimited quantities. Avantes spectrometers are used to measure changes during these plasma experiments.
