alexandritenon-linear opticallaser

Alexandrite is the leader of a class of tunable solid-state laser materials. Enhanced by several years of research and development, it features a broad wavelength tuning range of 710 - 800 nm with the capability to store and efficiently extract multi-joule pulses of energy. It is one of the most robust solid-state laser materials available with a thermal shock resistance five times that of Nd:YAG. Alexandrite’s unique combination of properties offer application in such areas as dermatology, lithotripsy, spectroscopy, atmospheric lidar, testing of fiber optics and photodetectors, materials processing, pumping of dye lasers, non-linear optics studies and annealing of semiconductors.
