Intense Inc today announced at Photonics West the release of a 10W version of the Series 8000 793nm High Brightness Laser Pump Modules. The new medium power pump delivers 10W of output power from a 105 micron core fiber, 0.22 Numerical Aperture. The compact, 10W module is designed specifically for use as a pump source for Thulium and Holmium pulsed laser systems which are seeing increased use in defense and medical applications.

The Series 8000 793nm Fiber Coupled Packages provide robust, cost effective, and compact solutions for pumping applications with power requirements in the 10W range. With this release, the high power chip technology of the Series 8000 793nm is now available in fiber coupled single emitters at 4.5W, as well as compact, multi emitter, high brightness, fiber coupled 10W and 20W modules.

Intense continues to lead the 793nm pump market, a market we established over 5 years ago with the production version of our 4.5W high brightness, single emitter pumps, stated Kevin Laughlin, CEO, Intense, Inc. When we introduced the 20W version last year, medical OEMs approached us with requests for a lower power, high efficiency, high brightness pump in a more compact package. Today's introduction of the 10W 793nm completes development of what has become a formidable and wide ranging 793nm pump product portfolio.

The entire Series 8000 793nm family of pump lasers is based on Intense's next generation of 793nm single emitter chips that incorporate narrow beam divergence and Intense's patented Quantum Well Intermixing (QWI) technology to maximize power, brightness, and reliability.

The 793nm Fiber Coupled Packages come standard with 105µ x 0.22NA fibers; 0.15NA fiber options are available on request. The same high performance 793nm chip technology is offered in a variety of free space configurations with FAC options.

Availability

The Series 8000 793nm single and multi emitter pump modules, 4.5W, 10W, and 20W, are available in custom packaging to match OEM system requirements. OEM discounts are based on quantities ordered.
