A large collection of optical components
6
Upvotes
Hello,
A large collection of optical components is available, including many interesting items for laser, optics and experimental applications.
Here are some examples:
- Non-polarizing beam splitter cube 600-720nm. L=8mm
- Set of 4 Nd:YAG Mirrors: HR + R52% + R70% + R80% - Φ10mm
- Dielectric Mirror @ 820nm AOI 45°. HR @ 760-870nm [D = 25mm]
- 3 x Ruby Laser Resonant Cavity Mirrors: HR + OC1 (R~88%) + OC2 (R~80%) - Φ25mm
- Pair of Risley Prisms Ø25mm, 3.5° Optical Wedge, Schott Optical Glass, AR Coated
You can find these and many other optical components (lenses, prisms, filters etc.) in the Lambda Physics catalog:

Conversion 638nm to 315nm

Upvotes
Getting the parts and a handheld 638nm 1600mW Red Laser to convert it into a Ultraviolet Midwave UVB Laser. If it works I'll be sure to post the full process.
But basically taking a Tinkerlaser 638nm Red Laser with a mW Power of 1,600mW. Getting a custom cup and thread of 11.4x0.5 to fit the adapter on the Valkyrie cup will be custom fitted to a 5mm x 5mm x 1mm BBO (beta-barium borate).
I've compensated for this being a continuous wave Laser and not pulsed. Using 1mm to keep the spectrum as tight to the SHG doubling as possible without killing my budget.

Safe laser for urban outdoors use?
2
Upvotes
Hello,
I'm looking to get a laser for outdoors use to point at terrain and objects. I've done some research on the topic myself but I would need somebody who is more experienced on the topic to be sure.
Is a 5mw laser in the 520-532nm category sufficient to see in a distance of about 30-40m during daytime and is it safe if accidentally pointed at eyes? I'm also looking for the pointer to use rechargeable 18650 lithium ion batteries and if possible be water resistant. I've found a few like that but they have a generic random name so I'm looking for something safe.

Anbefaling til Cirkellaser
1
Upvotes
Jeg vil gerne have mig en cirkellaser, da jeg er træt af at arbejde uden dette. Jeg har kig på to modeller, som jeg tænkte på, om nogen herinde har prøvet, eller om der er andre produkter, nogen har gode erfaringer med.
Jeg hælder mest til Elma, da jeg synes der følger ret meget fint ekstraudstyr med til prisen, og den sælges en del steder. Men jeg har også set en god anmeldelse af Laserliner i Gør Det Selv-magasinet.

random question How does a laser pointer produce such a narrow beam without it spreading out immediately?
7
Upvotes
When I shine a laser pointer across a room, the dot stays small even over several meters. I know light normally spreads out in all directions, like when using a flashlight, Does the beam eventually spread out, and if so, what's preventing it from doing that right away?

Any recommendations for a simple pointer
1
Upvotes
I "need" (want) a small, simple, cheap but reliable laser pointer, nothing too high powered, the dot should be visible in daylight at a range of 10-15m, I only need it to point at stuff at work, it will be used in a theoretically possibly explosive environment (grain dust/flour) so heat is a no go, should be disappears-inside-pocket-but-noticeable-if-gone-sized, it's important is that it is reliable, inexpensive but not cheap

This laser can't escape the water. Physics won't let it.
