Stacked Laser Arrays Increase Brightness, Reliability And Lifespan

Oct. 8, 2008
Expanding the Hermes family of high power quasi-continuous wave (QCW) arrays are lasers qualified to military standards in a standard wavelength of 808 nm with power levels up to 900W. The stacks reportedly degrade by less than 5% over 2 x 10E8 shots

Expanding the Hermes family of high power quasi-continuous wave (QCW) arrays are lasers qualified to military standards in a standard wavelength of 808 nm with power levels up to 900W. The stacks reportedly degrade by less than 5% over 2 x 10E8 shots when compared to similar components that degrade by 20% or more, resulting significantly longer lifetimes. Available as vertical or horizontal assemblies with up to 10 bars, plus lensed and unlensed options, standard configurations include 360W (four-bar stacked array, minimum 360W peak output power), 540W (six-bar stacked array, minimum 540W peak output power), 720W (eight-bar stacked array, minimum 720W peak output power), and 900W (10-bar stacked array, minimum 900W peak output power). Other wavelengths are available on request. Additionally, the Hermes 900W meets military standard MIL-STD-810F, Methods 501.4, 503.4, 514.5, and 516.5. Available now, pricing is based on quantity.
