Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
Any location where lasers are used which will be closed to unprotected personnel during laser operation.
CO2 Laser
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
A widely used laser in which the primary lasing medium is carbon dioxide gas. The output wavelength is 10.6 micrometers in the far infrared spectrum. It can be operated in either CW or pulsed.
Coaxial Gas
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
A shield of inert gas flowing over the target material to prevent plasma oxidation and absorption, blow away debris, and control heat reaction. The gas jet has the same axis as the beam, so the two ...
Coherence
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
A term describing light as waves which are in phase in both time and space. Monochromaticity and low divergence are two properties of coherent light.
Collimated Light
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
Light rays that are parallel. Collimated light is emitted by many lasers. Diverging light may be collimated by a lens or other device.
Focal Length
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
Distance between the center of a lens and the point on the optical axis to which parallel rays of light are converged by the laser.
Focal Point
Industrial machinery; Laser equipment
That distance from the focusing lens where the laser beam has the smallest diameter.
