IMPROVED MID-IR LASER FOR GENERATION OF ULTRASOUND USING A CO2 LASER AND HARMONIC GENERATION

A mid infrared range laser source for ultrasound inspection that comprises a high energy laser coupled with one or more harmonic generation devices. The high energy laser may be a C02 laser and tuned to emit laser light at a single wavelength. The harmonic generation devices convert the laser beam i...

Zusammenfassung:A mid infrared range laser source for ultrasound inspection that comprises a high energy laser coupled with one or more harmonic generation devices. The high energy laser may be a C02 laser and tuned to emit laser light at a single wavelength. The harmonic generation devices convert the laser beam into the mid infrared range for optimal ultrasound inspection.
