Samarium doped glass laser flow tube for for High Power Laser Head

Product Details of laser flow tube
Samarium Doped Glass Laser Flow Tubes
The samarium doped glass can block all UV light below 400nm, it is very good UV filter. Samarium doped glass can fluoresce in the visible range, which causes some increase in pumping efficiency with lasing mediums. It also can block the 1064nm wavelength.
By CNC machining, we can create different shapes and dimensions of laser flow tubes. It will be treated by chemical curing process which strengthens the glass tubes.

Materials of laser flow tube
The Laser Head Flow Tubes are most often used for laser lamps and laser rods in water cooled lamp pumped lasers. According to the application, we have following materials available to choose:

Fused Quartz (JGS2)
Synthetic Fused Silica（JGS1）
Borosilicate glass,
Borofloat 33
Cerium doped quartz
Samarium doped glass
Corning HPFS 7980

Aplication of laser flow tube
(a) cooling duct for both lamp(s) and laser rod(s);
(b) filtering-absorbing undesired UV radiation, thus protecting the rod from long term solarization;
(c) attenuating “lateral depumping” effects i.e. energy losses caused by the rod’s side emission, by absorbing it and preventing its back-reflection.
