Devices that create brief bursts of laser light with a high peak power and short duration are known as pulsed laser light sources. They are frequently utilised in a wide range of scientific and industrial applications, including high-speed communication, spectroscopy, material processing, and medical diagnosis and treatment.
A gain medium, an optical resonator, and a pulse generator make up the fundamental elements of a pulsed laser light source. A substance that can increase light through stimulated emission is often the gain medium.
The optical resonator, which produces the laser beam by reflecting light back and forth between two mirrors and the gain medium, is a cavity. The gain medium is excited by the pulse generator to start the pulse.
Pulsed laser light sources can be made of solid-state, gas, dye, or semiconductor lasers, among other materials. Due to their high power and dependability, solid-state lasers, which use a solid gain medium like crystal or glass, are frequently used in industrial and medical applications.
Gas lasers are frequently used in scientific research as well as laser cutting and welding applications. They use a gas-filled cavity as a gain medium.
In order to create a wide variety of wavelengths for spectroscopic and medical applications, dye lasers use a liquid dye as a gain medium. Often utilised in optical communication, semiconductor lasers achieve gain using a p-n junction.
Compared to continuous wave (CW) lasers, pulsed laser light sources have a number of benefits, such as higher peak power, shorter pulse duration, and better control over the energy delivered to the target. They can be used for a variety of applications that call for great precision and accuracy because to these qualities.
Global pulsed laser light sources market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Edinburgh Instruments has introduced a line of pulsed light sources for time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy.
While the AGILE supercontinuum laser offers tunable picosecond pulses over the visible and NIR spectrum, the VPL, VPLED, and HPL families of pulsed diode lasers and LEDs increase the variety of tiny, monochromatic sources available.
These HPL diode lasers are completely compatible with equipment from Edinburgh Instruments and are designed for time-Correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) from picoseconds to microseconds.
They are the ideal option for difficult samples with low brightness because of their high repetition rates up to 80 MHz and high-power output mode.
The FLS1000 Photoluminescence Spectrometer offers the TCSPC source AGILE, a white-light picosecond pulsed laser. Its output wavelength can be varied from 400 nm up to >2,000 nm when coupled to the excitation monochromator in the FLS1000, eliminating the need for numerous monochromatic sources.
