LAMP PUMPING CHAMBERS (LPC-1)

GENERAL FEATURES
Pumping Chambers constitute the heart of every Solid State Laser. Lamp Pumping Chambers fulfil a dual mission: On one hand, they have to concentrate the pumping lamp radiation to the active element (crystal rod). On the other hand, they have to provide housing and cooling channels for the elements they contain. For this reason, they are employing a sectional metallic jacket and elastic gaskets to ensure their robust and sealed assembly.
Our long-lasting and continuous research resulted in the development of a series of Lamp Pumping Chambers maintaining the minimal dimensions and weight, while exhibiting improved performance characteristics.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Our Lamp Pumping Chambers incorporate a specular-type flowtube, designed and manufactured in our premises. Its shape is such, to provide focusing of the pump lamp radiation on the active element. These flowtubes utilize pure fused silica for achieving optimal energy transfer to the active element. In case efficient filtering of the pumping lamp undesirable UV radiation and lateral depumping suppression is required, our flowtubes of yellow fused silica or Samarium doped glass can be employed, respectively.
The Pumping Chamber is hosting the lamp and the rod in separated cooling channels, thus allowing simultaneous coolant supply and achieving thermal lens’ optical axis stability due to the reduced turbulence.
Moreover, the metallic jacket material selection between stainless steel and titanium provides an additional possibility of unexceptionally matching the Pumping Chamber to the desired application.
The selection of fine materials for their manufacturing makes them suitable for a wide range of applications including industrial, scientific, medical and military lasers.
