| New Wave Research Introduces the Tempest 300, a Compact High-Performance Nd:YAG Laser System Higher Energy Version Broadens Capabilities of the Tempest™ Family of Laser Systems Fremont, Calif., April 11, 2002 – New Wave Research has introduced the Tempest 300, a compact, high-performance Nd:YAG laser system that is the latest and highest energy version of the company’s family of Tempest lasers systems. Tempest 300 features a 10 Hz repetition rate and provides optical output power of 300 mJ at 1064 nm and 180 mJ at 532 nm. New Wave Research will be showing Tempest 300 in booth #1458 at the Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics (CLEO), May 21 – 24 in Long Beach, California. The Tempest 300 broadens the capabilities of the Tempest family of Nd:YAG laser systems, which have been designed for laser-induced breakdown, Raman spectroscopy, laser ablation and many other scientific and OEM applications. Easy to set up and operate, the Tempest 300 features a laser head that measures just 15 x 7 x 3.5 in. and weighs only 15 lbs. To save valuable lab space, the system comes with a compact power supply that can be positioned up to eight feet away from the laser head. The control panel provides remote operation of all laser functions and can be positioned up to 10 feet away from the power supply. Tempest 300 operates on single-phase 110 or 220 VAC and incorporates an internal, closed-loop cooling system. The versatile flashlamp-pumped family of Tempest laser systems feature harmonic wavelengths of 1064 nm, 532 nm, 355 nm, 266 nm and 213 nm with repetition rates from 10- to 50-Hz. Tempest laser systems feature exceptional beam pointing and pulse-to-pulse stability as well as operating convenience with single-shot, continuous and TTL trigger control. Established in 1990,
New Wave Research manufactures a range of compact, pulsed Nd: YAG laser
systems for semiconductor failure analysis, LCD repair, laser ablation
for ICP mass spectroscopy, particle image velocimetry, OEM and many
other scientific and industrial applications. For more information,
