Laser Components (Hudson, NH) offers solid state laser coatings with high damage thresholds, including coatings for Q-switched lasers at 1064 nm, 532 nm, 355 nm, or 266 nm. Coatings for short pulse lasers at 800 nm also exhibit excellent damage thresholds. The damage threshold measurement values were determined using a 780 nm Spectra Physics laser, featuring 1 kHz repetition rate and 140 fs pulse length, according to ISO 11254-2.
