Photonics Industries’ DP Series of diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) Q-Switched nanosecond lasers offer exceptional performance tailored for demanding industrial and scientific requirements.  

 The DP range includes the new DP MAX range of multimode high energy lasers. While the standard DP Series provides up to 50 mJ at 100 Hz, the DP MAX Series scales energy significantly, delivering up to 3 J at 10 Hz or 200 mJ at 100 Hz. Together, these configurations address a vast range of applications requiring stable, repeatable pulses without the maintenance burden and downtime, or performance drift of traditional lamp-pumped lasers. 

The DP MAX Series is designed as a compact, monolithic platform, featuring a fully sealed industrial laser head and a short optical path for mechanical stability. It offers a circular multimode beam profile with M2 < 8 and exceptional pulse-to-pulse energy stability down to <0.2% RMS. For simplified integration, it includes a motorised output attenuator as standard and a fully detachable umbilical. Additionally, the DP MAX diodes boast extended lifetimes exceeding 10 billion pulses, ensuring maximum system uptime. 

For applications requiring superior beam quality, the DP and DP1k series offer true TEM00 output with M2 typically below 1.5. The DP1k series is optimized for high-speed tasks, delivering up to 20 mJ at 1 kHz. The DP Series is designed as a small, robust, and reliable all-in-one (AIO) form factor, ideal for easy integration into systems. 

All DP lasers are available in IR and harmonic wavelengths (green, UV and DUV). Features like Multiwavelength Selectable (MWS) and Blended (MWB) options on the TEM00 series allow for a flexible output spectrum. 

Across the entire DP range, all lasers benefit from exceptional efficiency, achieving up to 10% conversion from wall power. This architecture generates significantly less waste heat, up to 10x lower than lamp-pumped alternatives, which reduces stress on optical components and improves thermal stability.  

Control is comprehensive, utilising Total Pulse Control features such as Duty Control and PEC (Power or Pulse Energy Control). The DP1k series also benefits from proprietary Direct Access PWC Control for dynamic, real-time pulse-to-pulse energy control at up to 1 kHz. Operational convenience is prioritized with fast warm-up times, typically under 5 minutes from standby, and comprehensive connectivity via Ethernet, RS232, and TTL triggering. 

The high pulse energy and exceptional beam quality make the DP Series suitable for a broad spectrum of demanding tasks. The DP MAX is particularly suited for semiconductor annealing, shock peening, and satellite ranging. Applications for the TEM00 DP series include material processing such as drilling, marking, atomic excitation, quantum physics, LIBS, and spectroscopy.
