Laser equipment

Leading Edge Spike

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The initial pulse in a series of pulsed laser emissions, often useful in starting a reaction at the target surface. The trailing edge of the laser power is used to maintain the reaction after the ...

Light

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The range of electromagnetic radiation frequencies detected by the eye, or the wavelength range from about 400 to 760 nanometers. The term is sometimes used loosely to include radiation beyond ...

Light Regulation

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

A form of power regulation in which output power is monitored and maintained at a constant level by controlling discharge current.

Limiting Angular Subtense

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The apparent visual angle which divides intrabeam viewing from extended-source viewing.

Limiting Aperture

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The maximum circular area over which radiance and radiant exposure can be averaged when determining safety hazards.

Limiting Exposure Duration

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

An exposure duration which is specifically limited by the design or intended use(s).

Longitudinal or Axial Mode

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

Determines the wavelength bandwidth produced by a given laser system controlled by the distance between the two mirrors of the laser cavity. Individual longitudinal modes are produced by standing ...
