A video-rate scanning two-photon excitation microscope (TPEM) has been successfully constructed and tested. The TPEM, based on a Nikon RCM-8000, incorporates a femtosecond pulsed laser, a pre-chirper, and a non-confocal detection box for ratio imaging. Fig. 1 shows the schematic layout of the main components of the instrument, each of which is briefly discussed below.Laser System: A Tsunami Ti: Sapphire laser (from Spectra-Physics) is optically pumped by a 5 W green laser (Millennia from Spectra-Physics) and is capable of generating 100 fs pulses at a repetition rate of 82 MHz and an average power of 0.8 W. The output wavelength is tunable from 690 to 1050 nm with three optical sets, each covering part of the spectrum with some overlapping.Pre-chirper: After leaving the Tsunami, the laser beam enters an optic unit known as a pre-chirper which pre-chirps laser pulses to compensate for the group velocity dispersion which will result when the laser beam goes through the microscope optics.

Abstract A 1178 J near diffraction limited 527 nm laser is realized in a complete closed-loop adaptive optics (AO) controlled off-axis multi-pass amplification laser system. Generated from a fiber laser and amplified by the pre-amplifier and the main amplifier, a 1053 nm laser beam with the energy of 1900 J is obtained and converted into a 527 nm laser beam by a KDP crystal with 62% conversion efficiency, 1178 J and beam quality of 7.93 times the diffraction limit (DL). By using a complete closed-loop AO configuration, the static and dynamic wavefront distortions of the laser system are measured and compensated. After correction, the diameter of the circle enclosing 80% energy is improved remarkably from 7.93DL to 1.29DL. The focal spot is highly concentrated and the 1178 J, 527 nm near diffraction limited laser is achieved.

This paper presents systematic studies of thick-film or LTCC microcomponents (capacitors, inductors) made with the aid of laser-shaping and operating at temperature up to 450 °C. The minimum dimensions i.e. conductive path width and spacings were about 30 μm. Such small patterns have been created by laser cutting of fired Au- or Ag-based conductive films. Laser system equipped with Nd:YAG-laser (beam wavelength of 1064 nm) was applied. The inductance, capacitance, as well as parasitic impedances were measured in the frequency range from 10 kHz to 110 MHz and temperature between 25 °C and 450 °C.

Abstract This study develops a Yb:KGW dual-crystal based regenerative amplifier. The thermal lensing and gain-narrowing effects are compensated by the dual-crystal configuration. Sub-nanojoule pulses are amplified to 1.5 mJ with 9 nm spectral bandwidth and 1 kHz repetition rate using chirped pulse amplification technology. Consequently, 1.2 mJ pulses with a pulse duration of 227 fs are obtained after compression. Thanks to the cavity design, the output laser was a near diffraction limited beam with M2 around 1.1. The amplifier has the potential to boost energy above 2 mJ after compression and act as a front end for a future kilohertz terawatt-class diode-pumped Yb:KGW laser system.
