YVO4 : Infrared, Green & UV Lasers

YVO4 lasers are diode pumped solid state lasers that gained popularity through technology advancements over the older lamp pumped bulk YAG lasers. YVO4 lasers are sometimes called vanadate lasers because of the doped yttrium orthovanadate crystal used as their gain medium.

With the use of frequency multipliers, these lasers can emit at three different wavelengths: 1064 (infrared), 532 nm (green), and 355 nm (ultraviolet). Each wavelength has different advantages and materials best for various laser marking processes.

BENEFITS

Infrared (1064 nm)

  • Ferrous and non-ferrous metals have excellent absorption at 1064 nm wavelength.
  • Stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, coated metals and some plastics.
  • Great for heat marks, laser etching, laser ablation.

Green (532 nm) & UV (355 nm)

  • Precious highly reflective metals, synthetic polymers, and heat sensitive parts.
  • Green lasers are ideal for silicon, inorganic polymers, PCB boards, solar and semiconductor materials.
  • UV lasers have a fine spot size, low thermal footprint making them ideal for marking on glass and ceramics.

Our laser marking systems are available in standard models or can be custom built to your part size and application needs.
