The THEIA from Thales Group are Diode Pumped Nd:YAG Lasers that operate at wavelengths of 355 nm, 532 nm, or 1064 nm. They deliver an output power of greater than 100 W and pulse energy above 1000 mJ (at 1064 nm), 700 mJ (at 532 nm) & 500 mJ (at 355 nm). These nanosecond lasers have a pulse-to-pulse energy stability of less than 1 % rms, pulse repetition rate of up to 200 Hz, and pulse duration of 10 ns. They require an AC supply voltage of 230 V and a frequency of 50 - 60 Hz. These lasers are available in a benchtop module that measures 160 x 28.8 x 18.8 cm (laser head), 65 x 60 x 83 cm (power supply), and 37 x 44 x 72 cm (cooling unit). They are ideal for laser shock peening, laser adherence testing, laser annealing, laser lift-off, pumping of TeraWatt TiSa amplifiers, and laser cleaning applications.
