Journal ArticleDOI
Practical implementation of adaptive optics in multiphoton microscopy
TL;DR: A dedicated two-photon microscope incorporating adaptive-optic correction of specimen-induced aberrations is presented, allowing the adaptive optic to extend the imaging depth attainable in both artificial and biological refractive-index mismatched samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-brightness long-wavelength semiconductor disk lasers
TL;DR: In this article, a review on the recent developments in the field of longwavelength (A > 1.2 μm) high-brightness optically-pumped semiconductor disk lasers (OPSDLs) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A 0.6 W CW GaInNAs vertical external-cavity surface-emitting laser operating at 1.32 /spl mu/m
S.A. Smith,John-Mark Hopkins,Handong Sun,David Burns,Stephane Calvez,Martin D. Dawson,T. Jouhti,Janne Konttinen,M. Pessa +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first high-power vertical external-cavity surface-emitting laser operating at 1.3 /spl mu/m was achieved using a GaInNAs/GaAs structure capillary-bonded to a single-crystal diamond heatspreader.
Journal ArticleDOI
0.5-W single transverse-mode operation of an 850-nm diode-pumped surface-emitting semiconductor laser
Jennifer E. Hastie,John-Mark Hopkins,Stephane Calvez,C.W. Jeon,David Burns,Richard H. Abram,Erling Riis,Allister I. Ferguson,Martin D. Dawson +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the power scaling of a diode-pumped GaAs-based 850-nm vertical external-cavity surface-emitting laser, by use of an intracavity silicon carbide (SiC) heatspreader optically contacted to the semiconductor surface, was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal management in vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting lasers: finite-element analysis of a heatspreader approach
Alan J. Kemp,Gareth J. Valentine,John-Mark Hopkins,Jennifer E. Hastie,S.A. Smith,Stephane Calvez,Martin D. Dawson,David Burns +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of crystalline heatspreaders to improve thermal management in optically pumped vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting lasers was studied via finite-element analysis.
