The Helios III laser system is based on the Nd:YAG (1064 nm) and frequency doubled KTP Nd:YAG (532 nm) laser technology. Three basic elements of operations are as follows: 1) A Nd:YAG crystal is used as a gain medium which produces a laser beam. 2) A resonator then amplifies the beam. 3) A lamp that contains Xe gas is used, as a pumping light source. The lamp requires a high-pressure power source device for operation. When the electric energy generated from the high-pressure power source is induced into the electrode of the lamp, it converts into light energy. This converted light energy pumps the Nd:YAG crystal – a gain medium – and the light exhausted from the crystal is amplified into a specific wavelength light. As it passes between the resonant gases, laser beam radiates to an output unit. The regulation of laser output and repetition rate can be set by the user via GUI (Graphic User Interface) and controlled by microprocessor, which interfaces with the power supply.
