Er:YAG lasers with a wavelength of 2940 nm are mainly used in dermatology, dentistry, and other special applications. Special fibre cables are used for nearly loss-free power transmission.
For power transmission with Er:YAG lasers, patchcords are used that are optimised for the 2940 nm wavelength to virtually eliminate power losses. The biocompatible fibres can be sterilized and meet all the requirements for medical applications.
Inquire about our patchcord assemblies and specify these and other features:
Hollow-core fibres for Er:YAG lasers are equipped with a silver mirror coating on the inside, which is followed by a silver iodide coating. This creates an efficient dielectric IR reflector, which can be optimised for certain wavelength ranges between 3 μm and 20 μm.
Sapphire fibres are special fibres grown from a crystal. They are characterized by the excellent material properties of a sapphire crystal. Thus, they are chemically almost neutral; and at above 2000°C, their melting point is particularly high. At the same time, they are as flexible as a glass fibre.
