Does your laser system always produce the exact same energy output? One may be tempted to assume that lasers always produce energy as per their specifications and that it never changes over time. The reality is often very different.

Gentec-EO Blu Series honoured at Laser Focus World's Innovator Awards 2020

HP280A-30KW-HD-IMP-BLU-D0: High power detector for laser power measurement up to 30000 W. With BLU (Bluetooth) embedded wireless monitor. Includes USB Bluetooth receptor.

This year again Laser Focus World held its Innovators Awards program, which celebrates innovative technologies, products and systems found in the photonics market. We are proud to share with you that the Gentec-EO HP-BLU series was selected as Bronze-level honoree.

Gentec-EO QE95 Energy Detectors helped demonstrate the highest peak power capability in the world

Researchers from the Extreme Light Infrastructure Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) and Thales recently demonstrated that the two-arm hybrid high-power laser system (HPLS) is able to deliver 2 × 10 PW femtosecond pulses.

Gentec-EO Energy Detectors

Gentec-EO's pyroelectric energy meters cover a very wide range, going from nanojoules to several tens of joules per pulse. They also come in various sizes, from 8 mm to 95 mm in diameter and most of them are available with an optional attenuator.

For a list of all available models, please read further below.

Gentec-EO add metric thread on low-energy and low-power detector heads

An extra mounting hole with metric thread was recently added to the Gentec-EO detectors with a cylindrical housing. This second mounting hole makes it simpler to integrate these detectors in any optical system. 

New videos on Gentec-EO Academia Youtube channel: Thermopile vs photodetectors: which technology is best for your laser power measurements?

Myriam Blanchet, Inside sales representative at Gentec-EO, explains the difference between a thermopile and a photodetector at Gentec-EO's Youtube channel Academia. She then gives you some tips to know which technology is better for your laser power measurements.
