Spatter-Free Stable Conduction and Keyhole Welding of Copper with 275 Watt Blue Laser

7 pages | 27 November, 2018 | PDF | 1.1 MB

Laser welding of highly reflective materials such as copper has been problematic for infrared lasers due to the low initial energy absorption of the material during the welding process. This paper will report on the recent bead-on-plate test results using a 275 Watt CW 450 nm blue laser for welding copper foils up to 500 µm thick where the initial absorption is ~65%.

Frameless Mirror Holders and the Use of Ceramic Substrate

4 pages | 31 May, 2016 | PDF | 730 KB

The mirror is clamped in conventional optical mirror assemblies. Mechanical and thermal instabilities are created by clamping, which lead to disturbances in the measurements on precise optical constructions. A ‘frameless system’ offers the advantage that the entire mirror aperture can be used, especially in small spaces.

High-performance SWIR Imaging Cameras

11 pages | 31 May, 2015 | PDF | 1.62 MB

Silicon-based area detectors (such as CCDs or CMOS) are widely used in high-performance imaging applications, detecting wavelengths from soft x-ray through to near infrared (NIR). Typically, the quantum efficiency (QE) of these detectors decreases rapidly as the detection wavelength increases further into the NIR region.
