Nd:YAG for use in industrial,medical,military and scientific applications. The ND:YAG continues as the best of the 

rare earth garnet materials that are characterized by four-level laser operation which permits low threshold pulse

and cw operation.

Advantages of Nd:YAG Include:

●     High gain

●     Low threshold

●     High efficiency

●     Low loss at 1.06μm

●     Good thermal conductivity and thermal shock characteristics

●     Mechanical strength

●     High optical quality

●     Material characteristics that allow for various modes of operation

(CW,pulsed,Q-switched,mode locked,and cavity dumped)

We produce a wide variety of finished laser product,as well as supplying Nd:YAG material.

Our general Nd:YAG production capabilities include:

●     Slab-Custom Geometries

●     Rod sizes form 2mm to 15mm in diameter and from 1mm to 220 mm in length

●     Nd dopant concentrations beween 0.1 and 1.3%

●     Polished and AR coated barrels

●     MIL-C-675C adhesion,abrasion and humidity resistance

●     Damage threshold of over 15 J/cm2  

●     A wide variety of anti-reflection,partial reflector,high reflector and dichroic coatings

●     Premium grade Nd:YAG,with lower wavefront distortion,is available upon request
