Semrock Product Portfolio Semrock offer a wide range of hard-coated filter products and accessories that support the life science, laser and optical system market. They manufacture optical filters for fluorescence microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and laser systems as well as our own filter holders.

Semrock Filters Don’t Burn Out All Semrock filters are hard coated with sophisticated Ion Beam Sputtering (IBS) technology, resulting in patented state-of-theart filters with extremely durable hard glass coatings on a single hard glass substrate. No absorbing glass and no lamination is necessary. The result is exceptionally durable “no burn out” fluorescence filters of the highest performance.

Semrock Filters Optimized for Multiphoton Microscopy Semrock has brought enhanced performance to multiphoton users by introducing optical filters with ultra-high transmission, very steep edges and carefully optimized blocking. Given how much investment is typically required for the excitation laser and other complex elements of multiphoton imaging systems, these new filters represent a simple and inexpensive upgrade to substantially boost system performance. The BrightLine® emission filters provide crystal-clear transmission from the near-UV to the near-IR and provide deep blocking across the Ti:Sapphire laser tuning range, which is critical to achieving high signal-to-noise ratio and measurement sensitivity.

Optical Filters for Laser-based Fluorescence Microscopes Dichroics designed for laser fluorescence applications are coated with an antireflective coating in order to maximize transmis8

sion of the emission signal and eliminate coherent interference artifacts. A powerful laser excitation beam can encourage autofluorescence that will contaminate the emission signal, so a substrate with very low autofluorescence, such as fused silica, should be used. The dichroic beamsplitter can have a significant impact on the image quality in certain applications, especially if the flatness (or curvature) of the dichroics is not suitable. For most laser fluorescence applications, the dichroic should be flat enough that there is no noticeable focal shift, where focal shift is typically defined by the Rayleigh range. This is critical for applications such as TIRF microscopy and structured illumination.

Tunable Bandpass Filters Fluorescence microscopy applications, hyperspectral imaging, high-throughput spectroscopy, and fiber-optic telecommunications systems can all benefit from tunable optical filters. There exist several technologies that combine the two-dimensional imaging performance characteristics of thin-film filters and the center wavelength tuning flexibility of a diffraction grating, including liquid-crystal tunable filters, acousto-optic tunable filters, and linear-variable filters, but none are ideal and all have significant additional limitations. Because of that Semrock has developed a revolutionary new optical filter technology: Thin-film filters that are tunable over a wide range of wavelengths by adjusting the angle of incidence.

Ultraviolet (UV ) Raman Spectroscopy As an increasing number of compact, affordable, and highpower UV lasers have become available, like the quadrupled, diode-pumped Nd:YAG lasers at 266 nm and NeCu hollowcathode metal-ion lasers at 248.6 nm, ultra-sensitive UV Raman spectroscopy has become a more common technique. Optical filter availability in the UV range, however, has continued to lag behind. Semrock is proud to offer a number of extremely highperformance filters that are ideal for UV Raman spectroscopy. RazorEdge® long-wave-pass filters and MaxLine® laser-line filters offer a selection to complement the most popular UV lasers.

UNCOATED OPTICAL WINDOWS/SUBSTRATES Description Various dimensions substrates made from BK7, UVFS, IRFS, CaF2, ZnSe, Sapphire, MgF2. Standard substrates are laser grade polished on both surfaces. These substrates are ideal for beamsplitters, windows, partial reflecting mirrors etc. Laser components require highly polished substrates as well as high performance coatings. Scattering, damage of laser light can occur if the substrate is made of inferior material or if it is inadequately polished. For UV, very high power applications and ultrashort pulses we recommend using UVFS substrates. BK7 substrates are economical solution for laser components used in many applications in laboratory as well as in devices and instruments. Altechna provides various dielectric and metallic coatings on optical substrates.

Description Double convex or Biconvex lenses are symmetrical therefore have equal radii of curvature on both sides. Biconvex lenses are used as magnifiers, objectives, condensing systems. Since both surfaces contribute to the power of biconvex lenses, they have shorter focal length than PCX lenses of equal diameter and surface radius. Lenses can be anti-reflection coated (Please refer to the Coatings Section).

Plano-Convex Axicons (C onical lenses ) Description Plano-convex axicons are conical lenses which are used for variety of applications. When followed by a conventional spherical lens, axicons can focus laser light to a ring shape with annular focus. This feature can be used in hole drilling, microscopy and medical applications. Another interesting feature of axicons is a possibility to transform Gaussian beam into non-diffractive Bessel beam in the near field. Bessel beams can be used in atom or molecule guiding applications. Altechna offers two types of plano-convex axicons: regular and precision. Regular axicons will create annularly shaped beam whereas precision axicons will also transform Gaussian beam into a Bessel beam. You can choose accordingly, depending to your specific application.

Features • Produces non diffracting Bessel beam in the near field and ring shaped image in the far field • Available diameter up to 50 mm • Plano convex, plano concave and double convex available • Various AR coatings are available for all these lenses. Please refer to the Coatings Section

Plano-Concave Axicons (C onical lenses ) Description Plano-concave axicons have a plano surface in combination with a concave conical surface. Concave axicon produces a ring shaped image along the axis from a point light source (e.g. Gaussian laser beam). Due to specifics in fabrication process, a hole in the center of concave surface is needed. Diameter of the hole is typically 1 mm. Different coatings can be applied on the polished surfaces of axicons (please refer to the coatings section in page XX). When coated with HR coating, concave conical surface can be used as a conical mirror in some specific applications.

Right-Angle Prisms Description Right angle prisms are used to direct beams at 90 degrees by using the hypotenuse face for total internal reflection ( TIR). These prisms are often preferable to an inclined mirror in applications involving severe acoustic or inertial loads, because they are easier to mount, and deform much less than mirrors in response to external mechanical stress. As long as acceptance angle limitations for TIR from the roof faces are not exceeded, the right angle prism can also serve as a retroreflector, reflecting a beam back.

Description A Gires–Tournois interferometer (GTI) is an optical standingwave resonator designed for generating chromatic dispersion. GTI mirrors are used mainly for pulse compression in Yb:YAG, Yb:KGW femtosecond lasers, but can be optimized for other wavelengths, for example Ti:Sapphire laser system. Compared to prism or grating pulse compression systems GTI thin film mirrors exhibits lower losses and sensitivity to mechanical misalignment errors, thus enabling higher output power and stability of laser system.

In order to have better beam quality, i.e. in non-stable resonators, variable reflection mirrors can be used. High intensity of the laser beam requires use of components with a high damage threshold. Dielectric coatings are best suited to meet these requirements. Altechna offers variable reflectivity mirrors with dielectric coatings, designed for wavelengths in the range from 266 to 2500 nm.

Description Dielectric coatings consist of layers with different refractive indices. There are three major techniques used for dielectric coating: electron-beam deposition (E-beam), ion-assisted electron-beam (IAD) and ion beam sputtering (IBS). All of these processes are quite similar in their principle. They consist of evaporating some coating material and deposit it on the substrate. The difference lies in the deposition energy. Because of low energies involved when using electron-beam deposition, thin film contains bubbles and micropores like a sponge. These will eventually fill with water, which will change the refractive index of the coating and thus the properties of the optics. ( This is known as “environmental shifting”). The presence of water also lowers the damage threshold of the optics: when exposed to an intense light, the water will tend to vaporise and dislodge off bits of the coating. Finally, even in the absence of water, inhomogeneities of coating layers decrease the theoretical damage threshold. The positive points about this technology is that it is cost effective, widespread and very versatile. The coating itself is also slightly flexible, which makes the optics more resistant to mechanical stress. Ion-assisted electron-beam is an intermediate technique, between ion-beam sputtering and E-beam. So are its results. Ion beam sputtering involves energies 100 times higher than

E-beams. As a result the molecules of the coating layers form covalent bound when deposited. The resulting coating is free from bubbles or pores, more homogeneous, more durable, has higher damage threshold and is more repeatable and controllable. It also exhibits lower scattering and absorption properties, and overall higher specifications (more broadband, steeper transitions when needed, better spectral stability…). This is high precision coating, and the surface roughness can be controlled at better than 1 Å RMS (!), that is <λ/5000. Of course, this comes at a higher cost (atom-by-atom removal is very slow), and even worse, it is limited in the types of coatings it can handle: most of the UV coatings for instance involve fluorides which dissociate when sputtered. In this case, E-beam is the only option.

WAVEPLATES (phase retardation plates) Brief Overview ALTECHNA is offering a wide range of zero order (ZO), low order (LO) half (L/2) or quarter (L/4) waveplates for UV, VIS, NIR and IR (for any wavelength in 240-9000 nm range). Waveplates are made from materials which exhibit birefringence. The velocity of the extraordinary and ordinary rays through the birefringent material varies inversely with their refractive indices. This difference in velocities gives a rise to phase difference. At any specific wavelength the phase difference is governed by the thickness of the retarder - waveplate.

Performance of quarter (λ/4) waveplate

Half (λ/2) waveplate. A linearly polarized beam incident on a half wave crystal quartz waveplate emerges as a linearly polarized beam but rotated such that its angle to the optical axis is twice that of the incident beam. Therefore, half-waveplates can be used as continuously adjustable polarization rotators. Halfwaveplates are used to rotate the plane of polarization, electrooptic modulation and as a variable ratio beamsplitter when used in conjunction with a polarization cube. Quarter (λ/4) waveplate - thin-film compensator. If the angle between the electric field vector of the incident linearly polarized beam and the retarder principal plane of the quarter-waveplate is 45deg, the emergent beam is circularly polarized. When a quarter waveplate is double passed, i.e. by mirror reflection, it acts as a half waveplates and rotates the plane of polarization to a certain angle. Quarter waveplate are used in creating circular polarization from linear or linear polarization from circular, ellipsometry, optical pumping, suppressing unwanted reflection and optical isolation.

Performance of half (λ/2) waveplate

Features • Waveplates for any wavelength in the 240-9000 nm range • Air-spaced ZO waveplates for high energy applications • Waveplates for many wavelengths are available from stock • Custom design waveplate assemblies are available on request

Miscellaneous • Zero order (ZO) waveplates are generally preferred since they are least sensitive to variations in wavelength, angle of incidence and temperature. To suit different applications, air spaced or optically contacted (see drawings on next page) Zero order compensated phase retardation plates are available from ALTECHNA • The air-spaced construction enables to use the waveplate for high power laser applications. The damage threshold is more than 500 MW/cm 2

Retardation vs. wavelength for ZO and LO crystalline quartz waveplates

Altechna is offering a wide range of zero order (ZO), low order (LO) waveplates for UV, VIS, NIR range (for any wavelength in 240-2600 nm range). All our waveplates are made from excellent quality laser grade crystalline quartz material.

Laser and Passive Q-Switch Crystals

ZO waveplate is constructed by two quartz plates with their fast axes crossed. The difference in thickness between the two plates determines the retardance. ZO waveplates offer a substantially lower dependence on temperature, angle and wavelength change than conventional monolithic LO waveplates.

Standard specifications

Lasers and laser systems

Because of the difference in dispersion in these uniaxial positive crystals it is possible to calculate thickness of each plate so that birefringent phase shift in assembly changes very slowly over a certain wavelength range. This is a way to obtain achromatic zero order waveplates. Such AWPs are necessary for various devices and may replace a number of ordinary quartz waveplates operating at a single wavelength only. We can offer series of Achromatic Waveplates with phase shifts shown in graphs below.

Description


General Optics Polarization Optics

S-waveplate is a super-structured waveplate which converts linear polarization to radial or azimuthal polarization. Product is unique for its high damage threshold 10 times exceeding alternative devices: according to ISO 11254 – 2 is θ 1000-on-1 = 22.80 ± 2.74 J/cm2, at λ = 1064 nm, τ = 3.5 ns,

Benefits for laser micromachining

f = 10 Hz. High results achieved because converter is fabricated inside a bulk of UVFS glass.

Radial polarization enables focusing of laser beam into smaller spot size (with high NA>0.9 optics). For polarization direction sensitive applications radial/azimuth polarization allows same machining properties in all directions). It is also applicable in optical tweezers, STED microscopy or any other depletion application.

General Optics

Brewster type thin film polarizers are used for high energy applications. They have high damage threshold reaching 10 J/cm² @ 1064 nm for 8 ns. Brewster polarizers are used as an alternative to GlanTaylor laser polarizing prisms or cube polarizing beamsplitters. Typically, BK7 or UVFS dielectric coated brewster type thin film polarizers separate the s- and p-polarization components of high energy laser beams and are intended for intra and extra cavity usage. Typical polarization ratio T p/T s is 200:1 and it is achieved at 56° AOI (Brewster angle). For optimal transmission Brewster type thin film polarizer should be mounted in an appropriate holder for angular adjustment.

Miscellaneous • Custom design brewster thin film polarizers are available in small and mass production quantities • Mass production capabilities: 3’000 pieces per month • Brewster thin film polarizers with dimensions up to 200x150 mm are available

POLARIZING CUBES

Polarization Optics

Description Polarizing cubes for specified wavelength (250-2200 nm) AR coated on four input and output working surfaces. Polarizing beamsplitter cubes split randomly polarized beams into two orthogonal, linearly polarized components: s polarized light is reflected at a 90° angle while p-polarized light is transmitted.

Laser and Passive Q-Switch Crystals

Polarizing cubes for medium power applications Each beamsplitter consists of a pair of high precision right angle prisms cemented together with a dielectric coating on the hypotenuse of one of the prisms. Typical damage threshold of these cubes is >0,3 J/cm 2 @ 1064 nm 10 ns at 20 Hz.

Ti:Sapphire laser crystals Description Titanium doped sapphire (Al 2O 3:Ti 3+) is widely used for generating ultra short femtosecond pulses and wavelength tunable lasers. It has remarkably high gain. Ti:Sapphire crystals can be effectively pumped by short pulse flash lamps in powerful laser systems. Also these crystals combine supreme physical and optical properties with the broadest lasing range. Its indefinitely long stability and useful lifetime are an additional advantage. Medical laser systems, LIDARs, laser spectroscopy, direct femtosecond pulse generation by Kerr-type mode-locking - these are a few of the existing and potential applications.

Nd:YVO 4 laser crystals Description Nd:YVO 4 is one of the best host crystals for diode pumped solid state lasers. Neodymium doped yttrium vanadate (Nd:YVO 4) is widely used as diode pumped solid state laser material. It has a high laser induced damage threshold, good mechanical and optical properties. Its large stimulated emission cross-section and high absorption of pump radiation make it a suitable crystal for pocket laser pointer. Nd:YVO 4 can produce IR, green or blue radiation with minor difference in set-up’s. A broad absorption band centered at 807 nm and favorable mechanical properties make Nd:YVO 4 well suited for compact, efficient, high power diode-pumped lasers. Natural birefringence gives rise to a highly polarized output at 1064.3 and 1342 nm.

Description Nd:LiYF is laser material alternative to Nd:YAG. Nd:YLF emission wavelengths are 1053, 1047, 1313, 1324, and 1370nm. Main Nd:YLF advantage over Nd:YAG is higher pulse energy at low (<2kHz) repetition rate. Other differences are also worth of mentioning: weak thermal lensing, relatively broad fluorescence linewidth and naturally polarized oscillation. ALTECHNA provides Nd:YLF crystals which are selected to have low inhomogeneity over all aperture. Crystals with diameter 10 mm, length 120 mm and inhomogeneity ~1 - 3 ppm are available.

Optomechanics

Yb 3+ doped KY( WO 4) 2 (KYW ) and KGd( WO 4) 2 (KGW ) single crystals are the new laser crystals for diode and laser pumped solid-state laser applications. Yb:KGW and Yb:KYW crystals are used as a lasing materials to generate ultrashort high power pulses. Yb:KGW can be used as ultrashort pulses amplifiers and these crystals are one of the best materials for high power thin disk lasers. The broad spectral emission band of Yb:KYW allows the tuning of the laser radiation over 1020-1060 nm range and the generation of femtosecond pulses shorter than 70 fs, enhanced storage capacity, wide absorption spectrum at 980 nm and high absorption of pump radiation in a small crystal region allows an efficient use of diode laser pump. As compared to YAG or glasses used as hosts for Yb 3+, KYW and KGdW have the advantage of a larger absorption cross section than YAG, which decreases minimum pump intensity necessary to achieve transparency in the quasi-two-level system of ytterbium.

It is more suitable for diode-pumping than the traditional Nddoped systems. It can be pumped at 0.94 μm laser output. Compared with the commonly used Nd:YAG crystal, Yb:YAG crystal has a much larger absorption bandwidth to reduce thermal management requirements for diode lasers, a longer upper-state lifetime, three to four times lower thermal loading per unit pump power. Yb:YAG crystal is expected to replace Nd:YAG crystal for high power diode-pumped lasers and other potential applications.

Yb:CaF2 laser crystals

Features • Low quantum defect • Long fluorescence lifetime • Wide optical transmission range • Low dispersion behavior • Limited nonlinear effects under intense laser irradiation

Nonlinear Optics

Due to Yb:CaF2 crystal low quantum defect and a comparably long fluorescence lifetime, ytterbium-doped gain media are preferably utilized for high-power diode-pumped systems and laser amplifiers with high optical-to-optical conversion efficiencies. From this point of view, Yb:YAG is now the most important and developed one. Just recently, ytterbium-doped alkaline-earth fluorides (Yb:CaF2) have attracted considerable interest for use in diode-pumped femtosecond (fs) lasers and amplifiers. Alkaline-earth fluorides which can be easily grown by using the standard Czochralski or Bridgman technique show a wide optical transmission range, a low dispersion behavior and limited nonlinear effects under intense laser irradiation. It was recently shown that Yb:CaF2 single crystal can be grown up to diameters of about 200 mm, which is superior for high-energy short-pulse lasers with centimeter-sized apertures.

V 3+:YAG Crystals Description V 3+:YAG is a relatively new material for saturable absorber passive Q-switching in lasers emitting from 1.06 to 1.44 μm, in particular, for 1.3 um Nd-lasers. Extremely high ground state absorption (GSA) cross section of 7x10 -18 cm 2 near 1.3 um and negligible excited state absorption (ESA) permits Q-switching of 1.3 and 1.44 um Nd-lasers without intracavity focusing both with flash-lamp and diode-laser pumping. Negligible excited-state absorption results in high contrast of Q-switch, i.e. the ratio of initial (small signal) to saturated absorption is higher than 10. Finally, excellent optical, mechanical, and thermal properties of the host crystal give an opportunity to design compact and reliable laser sources with this passive Q-switch crystal.

These features of nonlinear BBO crystal include wide transparency and phase matching ranges, large non-linear coefficient, high damage threshold and excellent optical homogeneity. Therefore, BBO provides an attractive solution for various non-linear optical applications like OPO, OPA, OPCPA and other. As a result of large thermal acceptance bandwidth, high damage threshold and small absorption BBO is well suited for frequency conversion of high peak or average power laser radiation. The large spectral transmission range as well as phase matching, especially in UV range, makes BBO perfectly suitable for frequency doubling of Dye, Argon and Copper vapour laser radiation, effective cascade harmonic generation (Frequency doublers, triplers, parametric amplifiers and wave mixers) of wide spread Nd:YAG as well as of Ti:Sapphire and Alexandrite laser radiation. Both angle tuned Type 1 (oo-e) and Type 2 (eoe) phase matching can be obtained increasing the number of advantages for different applications.

It is unique in many aspects, especially its wide transparency range, moderately high non-linear coupling, high damage threshold and good chemical and mechanical properties. Its transmission range is from 0.16 μm to 2.6 μm. LBO allows temperature-controllable non-critical phase-matching operation (NCPM) for 1.0-1.3 μm , Type I SHG, and also provides room temperature NCPM for Type II SHG at 0.8-1.1 μm. It possesses a relatively large angular acceptance bandwidth, reducing the beam quality requirements for source lasers.

Laser and Passive Q-Switch Crystals

Polarization Optics

Description AgGaSe 2 crystal has band edges at 0.73 and 18 µm. Its useful transmission range within 0.9–16 µm and wide phase matching capability provide excellent potential for OPO applications when pumped by a variety of currently available lasers. Tuning within 2.5–12 µm has been obtained when pumping by Ho:YLF laser at 2.05 µm; as well as non-critical phase matching (NCPM) operation within 1.9–5.5 µm when pumping at 1.4–1.55 µm. AgGaSe 2 has been demonstrated to be an efficient frequency doubling crystal for infrared CO 2 lasers radiation. ​A gGaS 2 crystal is transparent from 0.53 to 12 µm. Although its nonlinear optical coefficient is lower among the other IR crystals, high short wavelength transparency edging at 550 nm is used in OPOs pumped by Nd:YAG laser; in numerous difference frequency mixing experiments with diode, Ti:Sapphire, Nd:YAG and IR dye lasers covering 3–12µm range; in direct infrared countermeasure systems, and for SHG of CO2 laser. Thin AgGaS2 crystal plates are popular for ultrashort pulse generation in mid IR range by difference frequence generation employing NIR wavelength pulses.

Nonlinear Optics

Variable attenuator/beamsplitter consists of 2 high-performance polarizing optics components placed in precision optomechanical holder 5APH79T-1. Variable attenuator/beamsplitter incorporates a high-performance Polarizing Cube Beamsplitter which reflects s-polarized light while transmitting p-polarized light. A rotating quartz Phase λ/2 Waveplate is placed in the incident polarized laser beam. The intensity ratio of those two beams may be continuously varied without alteration of other beam parameters by rotating the waveplate. Ratio can be controlled over a wide dynamic range. Pure p-polarization could be selected for maximum transmission, or pure s-polarization for maximum attenuation of the transmitted beam.

Laser Accessories and Equipment

Variable attenuator consists of zero order (air-spaced) λ/2 quartz waveplate and two (or one) high-performance broadband 72 degree polarizers. Rotating waveplate changes ratio of s and p polarizations. Polarizers working at 72 deg angle of incidence (AOI) reflect s-polarized light while transmitting p-polarized light. Intensity ratio of those two beams can be continuously varied without alteration of other beam parameters by rotating the waveplate. Intensity of either exit beams can be controlled over a wide dynamic range. P-polarization could be selected for maximum transmission, or high-purity s-polarization could be reflected when maximum attenuation of the transmitted beam takes place.

Motorized Watt Pilot assembling steps Step 1 Place polarizers into mechanical adapter. Polarizers must face each other with surfaces coated with polarizing coating. Polarizing coating is marked with an arrow, so you have to put the polarizers with the arrows on the sides facing each other. Then fix polarizers with the plastic bolts (use all 4 plastic bolts to fix one polarizer). NOTICE: do not tighten up the bolts too much since it can bend the polarizer and thus distort the laser beam. Step 2 Put wave plate into attenuator between two mounting rings as shown. Be sure the wave plate is immobilized tightly. Step 3 Attenuator consists of two mechanical parts. You should assemble both mechanical parts together.

Optomechanics

The main benefit of using piShaper is saving of laser energy what is very important in many laser applications, especially in material processing. The problem is that the Gaussian intensity distribution is not an optimum one in many cases. From this point of view evaluation of the efficiency of using laser energy has a great importance.

Nonlinear Optics

piShaper produces a collimated flat-top beam over a large working distance. With this unique tools it is possible to convert a Gaussian laser beam into a collimated flattop (or top-hat) beam with nearly 100% efficiency.

Autocorrelators Description The Autocorrelator is a nonlinear optical device, which measures temporal pulse shape in real time of single ultrashort light pulse with duration from 50 fs to 40 ps. The method used in the Autocorrelator is based on the noncollinear second harmonic (SH) generation, where the spatial distribution of the SH light contains information on the time behavior of the fundamental light pulse. This technique combines the zero background and the single-shot measurement capability. For immediate observation of pulse duration it is convenient to use the photodiode array. The Autocorrelator can be used with many of today’s ultrashort pulse lasers. The Autocorrelator can be constructed for temporal shape measurements of the pulses with duration down to 30 fs in the spectral range from 523 nm to 1400 nm and with lower temporal resolution in the spectral range up to 4000 nm.

Features • Easy to align and operate • Background - free measurement of a pulse duration from single-shot • Measurement of the non reproducible ultrashort light pulses • Measurement of pulse duration in a wide spectral range • Pulse chirp measurement from a single-shot • Estimation of the chirp pulse compressor adjustment from single-shot • Fully compatible with a photodiode array for automatic SH beam pattern recording • Cheap in comparison with a streak camera

Miscellaneous • Custom design autocorrelator are available in small and mass production quantities

Spectacles and Goggle type Safety Glasses Description WARNING: Don‘t look into the laser beam with your remaining eye, better wear our safety glasses! Working with lasers is entirely safe as long as you apply adequate protection to your eyesight. Otherwise, laser beam impact can induce severe and often irreversible damage to retina or cornea. Take advantage of our professional anti-laser spectacles and goggles. They are comfortable and absolutely safe (if selected properly). Selecting appropriate laser eye protection The choice of the most suitable safety spectacles of goggles must be done in compliance with standard EN 166, EN 207 and EN 208. The use of unsuitable eye-wear is one of the most frequent causes of eye injury. So, please, consider the following as a guide. For a correct judgement of optical hazards, it is important to know some fundamental parameters defined in the standards of eye-protection against laser radiation.

• Laser wavelength. Determine all wavelengths to protect against with one pair of glasses • Output parameters. For continuous wave lasers check the maximum output power and beam diameter to calculate the power density ( W/m2). For pulsed lasers determine the maximum energy, the beam diameter, and the frequency (if applicable) to calculate the energy density (J/m2) or power density • Spectral transmittance and optical density. Spectral Transmittance is the ratio between the power (or energy) transmitted by the filter and the incident power. Find recommended minimum power (or energy) density value that the protection filter must comply with in the standard EN 166, EN 207 or EN 208 tables - the closest greater value to your calculation. Optical density relates to transmission by equation: D = -log10 T.

Optomechanics

Ultra-stable kinematic mirror mounts 5VDOM-1 are designed to minimize mount-induced wavefront distortions. In conventional mounts, the mirror is tightened by a side screw. Radial forces acting on the mirror induces parasitic wavefront distortion, such as astigmatism. 5VDOM-1 mirror mounts use secure 3-points mirror suspension in between frontal flat spring and the back plate. Uniformly distributed axial forces eliminate wavefront distortion.

Motorized delay line 8MT160-300 provides precision path delays of up to 300 mm. Driven by a stepper motor with integrated limit switches, the motorized delay line offers a high-resolution delay of 2.5 µm. The main feature of this delay line are its highstability, compact and monolithic design as well as high resolution which makes the device ideal for integration in high precision measurement systems. Such delay line is in great demand in laboratories for precision optical path length control or other experiments (spectrum analysis, interferometry, etc.). Motorized delay line can be controlled manually by means of dial knob with increments located on the end of the stage. This device also could be considered as a long travel (300 mm) motorized translation stage. Resolution could be improved by means of steps division in motor using our up-to-date stepper motor controllers.

In optics there are a lot of fields where accurate amount of light, precise projection, specific depth of focus and other requirements are necessary. For such areas the use of iris diaphragms is one of the best options. Iris diaphragms consist of leaves and case. Leaves are made of hardened spring steel. Stainless chrome nickel steel can be used when better resistance to heat is necessary. The surface of leaves is polished and reducing the reflections. The edges of the leaves are rounded to achieve smooth operation. For increasing the slip of leaves an invisible coating is applied. Next, protection from corrosion is guaranteed by particular polishing process. Further, for producing the case, corrosion resistant aluminum alloy is used. Fine mat black look is achieved by black-anodizing the surface of the case.

Motorized vertical drive optical mount 8MKVDOM-1 is designed to minimize mount-induced wavefront distortions. In conventional mounts, the mirror is tightened by a side screw. Radial forces acting on the mirror induces parasitic wavefront distortion, such as astigmatism. 8MKVDOM-1 mirror mounts use secure 3-points mirror suspension in between frontal flat spring and the back plate. Uniformly distributed axial forces eliminate wavefront distortion. Due thermal processes on optic holding part, all metal inner tensions were removed and part makes none micro movements.

Feasibilit y Study On Laser Micromachining

Cooperation with our customers usually starts with a need to perform a specific micromachining task. The complexity of the task may depend on the material, type of fabrication, speed of processing and other requirements. The first step is usually a feasibility study, which indicates whether lasers are capable to perform the task. If it is a “yes”, then the customer decides how far to go down the steps of cooperation with Workshop of Photonics: 1. Feasibilty study

2. Laser process development (laboratory prototype)

Small Scale Production

Most of laser micromachining applications are not as straightforward as for example marking. Some processes need development which takes weeks and even months. Not only different laser parameters have to be tested but also various beam shaping and focussing solutions.

Since micromachining workstations incorporating ultra-short pulse lasers is a significant investment, it is not always worth, it is not always worth buying one. Especially if you need to machine a small batch of articles, consider using our job shop services.

Development of Industrial Laser Machines Needs of industrial customers are rather different from those of an academic laboratory: speed, repeatability and efficiency are in focus. Therefore our laser solution usually is a part of a bigger manufacturing machine or production line. Usually it is built by specialized integrators or producers of manufacturing machinery.

FemtoFAB FemtoFAB is a turnkey femtosecond laser machine for industrial use. Configuration is selected and carefully tuned according to a specific laser micromachining application, including laser cutting, laser scribing, laser drilling and 3D laser milling with any desirable material (with >2,4 GW peak power). System is protected by Class 1 equivalent laser safety enclosure and is controlled through a single SCA engineer software window.

Knowing your application of laser micromachining and process needed to implement it, Workshop of Photonics will develop a specific task optimized laser machine. System configuration will be selected to assure quality, speed and reliability of execution of your task. We will select the needed hardware components including: • Laser source • Sample positioning system • Beam delivery and scanning unit • Laser power and polarization control • Software for process control • Machine vision and sample recognition • Sample holders and special mechanics • Dust suction • Other devices In order to automate the fabrication process, a custom adaptation of our laser micromachining software SCA engineer can be designed (see page 11). This will not only speed up the fabrication process, but will also reduce participation of an operator to the very minimum. On the other hand, high-level users will have a special interface to configure the process or add new tasks. Usually we offer our services to laser system integrators and producers of manufacturing machinery. However through cooperation with our partners, we can also deliver complete laser machines ready to install at your production site.

The SCA laser automation software product family is distinguished among other existing laser software solutions by the key working principle – it controls positioning stages by directly addressing the command libraries of the positioning stages software (no machine code conversion). Structures of any geometry can be fabricated directly from CAD file. There are no limitations for object shape or direct writing geometry, except those limited by obvious laws of physics.

Features Photoresist polymer materials

*1

• Variety of photoresist materials with required features can be chosen; • No structural distortions; • Certain wavelength absorption; • Refractive index matching.

Lasers and laser systems

• 100 nm – 10 μm writing resolution • Medium cost per sample • Variety of polymers • Complex 3D objects

Polarization Optics

Multiphoton polymerization is a unique technology for 3D structuring of micron scale objects with nanometer precision. Femtosecond laser beam is focused inside a drop of sol-gel or other types of photoresistive polymer and desired pattern is “written” precisely point–by-point (Fig. 1 a and b). Then, the unsolidified remainder of the photoresist is washed away leaving only the fabricated microstructures on the substrate.

Precision and controllable self-polymerization Standard direct writing is able to make repeatable structures as small as 100nm, though by employing self-polymerization effect, the smallest lines can be around 20 nm. This effect occurs when certain distance between polymerized structure walls is kept, so self-polymerizing structures can be controlled, at least to some extent.

Repeatability Reliable and multifunctional software ‘SCA Professor’ensures fast preparation, stable workflow. 3D lithography is related to huge amounts of data, which has to be transmitted between computer and positioning controllers. Many systems crash because of poor software adaptation to these specific tasks. ‘SCA professor’ splits the data in portions to deliver them safely and timely to the controllers. Moreover, identical structures can be fabricated by direct laser writing process but in order to save time and work for large area patterning stamping technique can be used.

Application in micro optics

Application in photonics

Many polymers are transparent to visible light and can be combined with other materials like Zn or Ge. The ability to control light flow can be used in micro optical devices, such as micro lenses, hybrid micro lenses with a phase gratings, micro lens arrays, vortex beam screw generators, vortex generator arrays or other. The MPP technology allows fixing of such micro optical devices on limited surfaces like the tip of an optical fiber.

Highly repeatable and stable technological process aims at fabrication of detractive gratings and photonic crystals.
