Mid-IR Fiber Laser Technology for Medical Applications
A 2910 nm fiber laser platform delivering precise energy control and stability for advanced medical device integration and next-generation system architectures.
The Engineering Challenge in Medical Lasers
Laser surgery is bringing surgical interventions to new levels of safety and efficacy through minimally invasive treatments with minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Clinicians are pushing the limits of how laser cutting and coagulation can be used and see great value in doing more with the same tool.
For device manufacturers, this requires an energy source with high versatility, uptime, and efficiency while still enabling exceptional results. Existing commercial laser devices present several challenges to these requirements.
Large beam spots limit the spatial precision of treatment, while fixed pulse parameters restrict versatility. Frequent maintenance results in ongoing costs and reduced uptime, and low electrical-to-optical efficiency leads to high electricity consumption and demanding cooling requirements. These constraints ultimately limit the number of possible applications.
