FONALaser - operation modes ■ Continuous wave mode (CW)
Continuous stream of radiation
Uninterrupted laser beam
Advantage: High power output
■ Chopped mode (CM) Laser beam interrupted at regular intervals
(50% ON & 50% OFF = 50% duty cycle)
Pulse frequency from 1 Hz to 100 Hz
Advantage: Better thermal control
■ Peak-Pulse mode (PP) Very storng (7W) and short peak (20 µs ON &
80 µs OFF) at a very high frequency (20 kHz) Special type of Chopped mode
Advantage: Better thermal control
