Buying YLF Lasers

Top-level product category: lasers and laser amplifiers

More general product categories: solid-state lasers

Related product categories: YAG lasers, vanadate lasers

YLF lasers, typically based on Nd:YLF, emit at 1047 nm or 1053 nm. They are often used as alternatives to Nd:YAG lasers when specific wavelength requirements or other performance characteristics are needed.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers, but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

Purchasing involves a lot of responsibility. We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

Our article on best practices for purchasing gives you valuable insights.

1. Understand the technical background

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

Use the comprehensive resources of RP Photonics:

If you need personal help, contact RP Photonics to get technical consultancy.

2. Define your requirements

It is essential to fully understand and clearly define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that you develop a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs, against which you can later check the suitability of found product offers:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying YLF lasers. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

This list is for your own preparation, and can later (possibly in modified form) be used for quotation requests to suppliers.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

3. Find suitable suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for YLF lasers. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research. (You should finalize your specifications before doing this.)
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

YLF lasers

The GxJ series is a family of four laser models, each of which is based on a Nd:YLF oscillator and one or more Nd:phosphate glass amplifiers. They produce near-diffraction limited single-longitudinal mode (SLM) Gaussian radiation in the nanosecond regime with pulse energies from 1 J to 16 J (fundamental harmonic). Design features include a highly stable EO or passively Q-switched, linear telescopic or ring-cavity oscillator, 2-pass amplification using high energy Brillouin phase conjugation (SBS), and optional frequency conversion to the second or third harmonics in DKDP. They are rigorously designed as highly versatile laboratory tools, meeting the high standards required for scientific interferometric or holography applications, where smooth beam shape and long coherence length is vital.
