Alma Soprano Ice Diode Laser Array

Alma Soprano Ice Diode Laser Array is Microchannel Cooled Laser Diodes. Copper based microchannel coolers have long proven themselves to be a highly effective means of cooling high power diode lasers. Unfortunately, the operating lifetime of these copper coolers has been limited by corrosion and erosion based wear out mechanisms of their integrated cooling water channels. DI water requirements have also added to overall system complexity and cost. While we continue to offer traditional copper based microchannel coolers to its existing customers, a transition is well underway to displace the copper based products with ICECUBED (IC3) technology - a ceramic material based, next generation thermal management platform for high power/brightness diode laser applications.
