The 295-FIR is a stand-alone far-infrared (FIR) laser designed for operation with high power CO2 lasers (namely, the PL5 or the PL6).
The 295-FIR guarantees typical powers of 150 mW when pumped by the PL5, and 500 mW when pumped by the PL6, available at 118.8 μm and 184.3 μm.
The 295-FIR has a 3 bar invar support frame and features the same optical design as used in the FIRL-100. It has been engineered to allow ultra-high vacuum (UHV) pumping for extended sealed operation, maximum power and number of lines.
If you would like to integrate a FIR laser with a high power CO2 laser into one housing please see our FIRL-100 product.

Far-Infrared (FIR) laser frequencies arise from rotational transitions in an excited vibrational state of a polar gas molecule at low pressure.
The optically pumped FIR laser relies on the selective absorption of tuneable infrared radiation to create a population inversion between rotational states and hence generation laser action. In practice, a few molecules are chosen to provide discrete frequencies across the entire FIR spectrum from 40 μm upwards. Tables of FIR lines are available on request.
