Optical fabrication operations such as grinding and polishing leave traces in the material below the surface being worked and while subsurface damage seems inevitable GAMDAN Optics has proven to minimize SSD. See the photos we took in our lab and the results.
Read MoreAn Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO) is a light source, and a feature of optical parametric oscillators is wavelength flexibility. OPOs can deliver wavelengths that may be difficult or impossible to achieve with lasers. Not only can an OPO be built to work at a specified wavelength, but also many OPOs can be tuned--the user can scan the wavelength. In a laser, stimulated emission from an energized laser medium amplifies light. The laser medium is usually energized by a separate electrical or optical power source. An OPO is different…
