Lasers Videos

  1. Quality Control 4X Throughput 1/26/2017

    In this video, Dick Reiley from Ophir Photonics shares how he provided a manufacturer a solution that allowed throughput to increase 4X by reducing the time required for quality inspection. This solution was specifically created for an application measuring laser diodes.

  2. Co-alignment Of Visible, NIR, And IR Laser Beams 4/22/2016

    Eric Craven with Ophir Photonics provided us with a tutorial at DCS 2016 on how to co-align visible, near-infrared, and infrared laser beams through the use of a pyroelectric camera array coupled with beam profiling software.

  3. Standing Out In Crowded SWIR And Thermography Markets 2/18/2016

    Sierra Olympic’s Chris Johnston had some really interesting displays to share with us at Photonics West in 2016. The first involved a thermography camera with resolution you need to see to believe.

  4. Why Do I Need To Measure My Laser Beam? 2/17/2016

    Dan Ford walked us through some of what was on display for laser beam profiling and analysis applications before sharing information on Ophir’s high-power laser application initiative over the last year.

  5. High Speed 5 Axis Micro Drilling Scanhead In 2016 2/17/2016

    We were fortunate enough to meet with Taiki Iida at Canon to hear about two brand new releases.

  6. Low Cost, High Speed Imaging Solutions 2/17/2016

    Xenics' message at Photonics West in 2016 is straight and to point — low cost, and high speed.

  7. Video: The Full Spectrum 11/23/2015

    Ophir-Spiricon products have the ability to measure the output for every laser wavelength along the electromagnetic spectrum. This video provides a brief introduction of Ophir’s wide range of equipment used in different spectrum regions to measure and profile lasers.

  8. Verifire™ HD Interferometer System Video Demonstration 6/29/2015

    This video features the new Verifire™ HD Interferometer System with a high-speed 2k x 2k pixel CCD camera, and an optimized optical design to reliably measure surface features.

  9. Refractive Eye Surgery Using Fast Piezo Steering Mirrors 6/15/2015

    This video demonstrates the use of the Piezo Drive in refractive eye surgery. These Piezo-based tilting mirrors direct the laser beam faster and more precisely than conventional scanners.

  10. Issues in Measuring Beams Coming Out of a Fiber 4/24/2015

    There is often confusion when having to measure a beam coming out of fiber. The geometry of the situation is different, as the beam diverges when emerging from a small aperture. This video discusses the necessity of other parameters such as numerical aperture or fiber core diameter in measuring a diverging laser beam exiting a fiber.
