Features


  • High-Quality Alexandrite Crystal: Grown using the Czochralski method, ensuring monocrystalline form with exceptional crystal quality.

  • Broad Wavelength Tunability: Emission wavelengths range between 710 nm and 800 nm, with optimal operation at 755 nm for maximum laser gain.

  • Excellent Polarization Properties: Anisotropic nature allows for linearly polarized emission with low depolarization losses.

  • Superior Thermal Shock Resistance: Five times the resistance of Nd:YAG due to high mechanical and thermo-mechanical strength.

  • High Pump Power Tolerance: Capable of withstanding very high pump powers, with pump pulse energies in the hundreds of joules or several kilojoules.

  • Optimal for Dermatology Applications: Effective for hair removal, tattoo removal, and treatment of leg veins and pigmented lesions through selective photothermolysis.

  • Efficient Skin Treatment: High pulse energy and average power reduce treatment time, with minimized epidermal damage through skin cooling.

  • Versatile Applications: Suitable for dermatology, spectroscopy, atmospheric lidar, and various laser types including Long Pulse, Q-switched, and Picosecond 755 nm lasers.

  • Comprehensive In-House Production: Crystal boules growth, cutting, polishing, and coating all performed in-house for quality assurance.

  • Customizable Rod Dimensions: Available in diameters from 3mm to 10mm and lengths up to 153mm, with flat or curved ends.

  • High Damage Threshold Coating: Ensures durability and longevity of the crystal.

  • Competitive Advantages: Excellent quality, competitive pricing, fast delivery, and superior customer service.

  • Physical Specifications: Orthorhombic crystal structure with unit cell dimensions of 5.476 Å (a), 9.404 Å (b), and 4.427 Å (c). Thermal expansion coefficients are 5.9, 6.1, and 6.7 x10-6∙K-1 for axes a, b, and c respectively.
