A curved partially reflective lens samples and focuses laser light for accurate power monitoring without added optical complexity or beam-path changes.
Backward visible-light monitoring through a coupled fiber enables earlier fiber fuse detection with one receiver and fewer false near-IR triggers.
A separate-wavelength calibration laser sets beam phase before high-power startup, enabling coherent combining despite switching fluctuations and turbulence.
Radiation sensors track zone-level lamp output over time, enabling early aging alerts and power adjustment in processing chambers.
Nano-textured beamsplitters attenuate high-power laser beams to camera-safe levels for accurate profiling without thin-film damage.
Embedded metal nanostructures boost SWIR absorption in a thin infrared detector, enabling faster operation with lower dark current and parasitic impedance.
A high-thermal-conductivity layer draws heat from a magnetic photodetection element, improving heat dissipation during light exposure.
An on-substrate photosensitive element detects LED side light directly, improving brightness calibration accuracy and reducing external noise.
