NHD-160

The NHD-160 is a compact diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser

Compact dimensions and full air cooling make the NHD-160 ideal for scientific setups, field laboratories, and compact OEM systems

  • The diode-pumped design ensures high electrical efficiency, low maintenance, and outstanding stability of output parameters over long operating periods
  • Its monolithic construction provides superior mechanical and thermal stability, enabling reliable operation even under challenging environmental conditions
  • Replaceable harmonic modules allow quick reconfiguration for different wavelengths (532 nm, 355 nm, 266 nm, and 213 nm). Automatic recognition of installed modules, single-beam alignment for all harmonics, and no-adjustment operation make the system extremely user-friendly
  • An integrated energy monitoring system continuously measures pulse energy at any selected wavelength in real time. This eliminates the need for external energy meters, freeing up workspace and simplifying integration into complex systems
