Product Detail

The Spectra-Physics Pantera™ diode-pumped solid state laser uses innovative fiber-amplifier technology to deliver more than 12 W of UV power at 355 nm. It also provides excellent mode quality of TEM00 and picosecond laser pulses at very high repetition rates up to 80 MHz with a rugged industrial platform for hands-off 24/7 operation.

Specifically designed for industrial and OEM customers who require precision, high-throughput material processing, the Pantera picosecond laser prevents thermal damage, enabling higher resolution and higher quality work. A high repetition rate of 80 MHz provides smooth processing results, even at speeds of multiple meters per second. The 12 W output power level provides high throughput and lower cost per photon.

The Pantera UV laser uses a fiber amplifier—powered by rugged, hermetically sealed diodes with high brightness—to provide the unique combination of high UV power, good beam quality, and unprecedented reliability. The power of the pump diodes is converted into laser light with very high slope efficiency of up to 70% (laser power to pump power) for easy thermal management, limited power consumption, and lower operating cost.

Unlike conventional resonators, the fiber amplifier is not affected by external influences such as mechanical or temperature-induced misalignment, making the Pantera suitable for rugged industrial applications. The Pantera is further protected by a recirculating purge system integrated in the power supply to ensure reliable operation with no unscheduled downtime.

In addition, the fiber amplifier provides a platform, unlimited by thermal lensing, that enables the Pantera to scale to even higher power levels.
