Embodiment Construction

[0025] see figure 2 , in a first preferred embodiment, a programmable tailor-made laser pulse generator 10 includes a pulsed pump seed diode laser 12 to generate a pulsed seed laser output 14 with The laser pulse intensity profile generated by the tailor-made drive current pulse input signal 16 is synthesized by a device 18 . The line width and line stability of the pulsed seed laser output 14 are important factors for laser processing applications such as link breaking of memory chips, but are also important characteristics for solid state laser amplifiers to produce stable amplification. The seed diode laser 12 with stable lines and narrow linewidth provides a laser spot size small enough to achieve the focused laser treatment required. An example of a preferred seed diode laser 12 is a 1064 nm single-mode spectrally stabilized laser model No. I1064SB0120P available from Innovative Photonic Solutions, Inc. (Monmouth Junction, NJ). This laser is specially designed to seed ...

Abstract

A programmable tailored laser pulse generator including a pulsed seed laser source, a laser amplifier, and an optical power amplifier produces high power tailored laser pulses shaped in response to a programmable analog tailored pulse signal applied to a seed laser (first embodiment) or an external modulator of continuous-wave seed laser output (second embodiment). The programmable analog tailored pulse signal is generated by combining multiple individually programmable analog pulses generated by a multi-channel signal generator. A bias applied to the pulsed seed laser source generates pre-lasing prior to producing a tailored laser pulse so that the seed laser source spectral line and line width stabilize within a narrow gain line width of a solid-state laser amplifier, thereby to impart pulse peak stability of the laser output. The tailored laser pulse generator allows for generating harmonics at shorter wavelengths and provides an economical, reliable laser source for a variety of micromachining applications.
