Q SWITCH

1.A ‘Stallion’ version of our industry standard water cooled Acousto-optic Q-Switch, for use in high power lamp or diode pumped Nd:YAG lasers. 2.The patent pending ‘Stallion’ manufacturing technique provides superior corrosion resistance whilst maintaining optimum performance and RF power handling capabilities up to 100W. 3.Combining top grade fused silica with high quality optical finishing and in-house anti-reflection coatings, this Q-Switch exhibits very low insertion loss and high damage threshold. 4.In addition to the standard product shown, custom configurations are available for specialized applications. These include alternative housing options, wavelengths and RF frequencies. Key Features: Industry standard for Nd:YAG lasers Superior corrosion resistance Stainless steel cooling channels High damage threshold Push fit water-connectors Up to 100W RF power handling Custom configurations available Applications: Material processing: Laser marking Laser engraving Laser cutting Laser drilling Medical (surgery) Lithography Technical Specifications:Interaction material: Fused silicon Wavelength: 1064nm AR coating reflectivity: < 0.2% per surface Damage threshold: > 1GWcm-2 Transmission (single pass): > 99.6% Static insertion loss: ≤ 6% at 50W laser power VSWR: < 1.2:1 (<1.4:1 at 50W RF power) RF power rating: 100W cw (max) Water flow rate: > 190cc / minute Water-cooling channel material: Stainless steel 316 Recommended water temperature: +22oC to +32oC Thermal switch cut-off: +55oC +/- 5oC Ordering Codes Example: I-QS027-4S4G-N5-ST1 (Q-Switch, 27.12MHz, 4mm active aperture, shear mode, fused silica, 1064nm, 4mm OD straight push fit water-connectors, BNC, Stallion housing with M3 mounting holes
