Title:
SOLID-STATE LASER DIODE PUMP WITH AN EXCHANGEABLE PUMPING MODULE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1999025046
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a solid-state laser diode pump (DFKL) comprising a pumping light source (1) having a diode stack (2). The inventive pump also comprises a laser rod (7) and a pumping activity (8), whereby the pumping light source accommodated in a separate housing can be exchanged as a pumping module with simple handles. As a result, the pumping light source is protected from electric discharge of the diodes, mechanical stress and from contamination. Given that it is possible to accommodate alternative pumping light sources of varying pumping capacities in the pumping module, the user can exchange the pumping module when the pumping module is worn as well as when additional power is required.
