Series-level technical context

Engineering context for a thin Pulsed Lasers record

This model has no standalone PDF and only a small number of model-specific rows. The values below are traceable context from 20 nearby configurations on the same source-product record; they define the parameters to qualify, but are not substituted for an order-specific datasheet.

Typical operating fields in the series

  • Output / average power: 1~10 W
  • Output / average power: 1~25 W
  • Output / average power: 20-30 W
  • Operating mode: Q-switched
  • Operating mode: Mode-locked

Beam-quality tolerance context

Nearby series records state M²: <1.5, Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <1, Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <3.5, and Beam divergence, 1/e2 (mrad): <1.5. These are series context, not guaranteed values for 556; confirm them on the order-specific datasheet.

Application context

Why this design is used

Applications named on a datasheet for this product line, interpreted against this model’s listed wavelength and beam data.

Optical microscope

556: 556 nm emission can be matched to the absorption or excitation band used in Optical microscope. Power stability and beam pointing should be confirmed because both affect quantitative image or fluorescence intensity.

Photon imaging

556: 556 nm emission can be matched to the absorption or excitation band used in Photon imaging. Power stability and beam pointing should be confirmed because both affect quantitative image or fluorescence intensity.

Physics experiment

556: Physics experiment benefits from a stable, focusable source. 556 nm emission fixes the compatible coatings and detector response, while M², divergence and pointing stability should be confirmed for the intended beam path.
