Rofin-Baasel Lasertech has rolled out new laser devices that feature short pulse length and high laser power.
The company developed the PowerLine L 400 laser in order to address the short cycle time needs of numerous customers. The q-switched solid state laser is ideal for micro-material processing and other similar applications where high pulse energy and high average power is required.
Rofin-Baasel’s Powerline L 300 laser is ideal for edge ablation of thin film layers for manufacturing CIS and CdTe solar cells. The PowerLine L 100 SHG laser is suitable for direct laser doping and dielectric layer opening. The laser source provides sufficient power and optimum beam characteristics for large-scale production.
The Nd:YAG laser units are diode pumped and delivers stable operation for a long period of time. The PowerLine L 100 utilizes a SHG assembly with a harmonic generator crystal that facilitates frequency conversion. The q-switching technology enables improved pulse performances, which are 1000 times greater when compared to the cw laser power. The laser’s pulse length ranges between 50 and 300 ns.
