Second-Harmonic Generation (SHG)

QTekLaser offers laser systems with extended wavelength range by combining nonlinear frequency conversion technologies. Through second-harmonic generation (SHG) we achieve significant laser power at the visible and NIR regime (figure 2;  red-shaded cells of table 1).  With the development of waveguide technology, nonlinear frequency conversion has become a powerful tool to extend the application scope of fiber lasers.

QTekLaser lasers comply with Federal Regulations (21 CFR Subchapter J, Part 1040)  as administered by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health and are certified to IEC 60825-1:2014 standards.

It is the end user's responsibility to ensure that no significant light is retroreflected back into QTekLaser systems as this can degrade performance and potentially damage the lasers. To prevent this, the use of an external optical isolator is strongly recommended.  Damage due to retroreflected light is not covered under warranty.

Quantum Applications

The 795 nm laser addresses the rubidium D1 transition  for gray-molasses cooling and clean optical pumping. Its 4 W of low-noise, single-frequency output supports sub-Doppler laser cooling and trapping, atomic interferometry, and quantum-sensing platforms that need a stable D1 source alongside their D2 lasers.
