The High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS) is a Lockheed Martin-developed 300 Kilowatt high-energy laser weapon designed to intercept combat drones, fast-attack craft, and missiles. [1] After winning the contract in 2018, the first announced installation was on the USS Preble (DDG-88) in 2019. [2]
Coherent was founded in May 1966 by physicist James Hobart and five cofounders. It went public in 1970. Over time, Coherent acquired other laser businesses and expanded to lasers for different industries and applications. From 2004 to 2021, it grew from $400 million to almost $2 billion in revenues, in part through a series of acquisitions.
In 2022, II-VI acquired laser manufacturer Coherent, Inc.. [14] and took the name Coherent Corp. Carl Johnson served as II-VI's first CEO from 1985 to 2007. He stepped down as CEO in 2007 and was named chairman of the board, a position he held until 2014. [15] Johnson was succeeded as CEO by Francis Kramer, who had been president since 1985. [13]
Craigslist headquarters in the Inner Sunset District of San Francisco prior to 2010. The site serves more than 20 billion [17] page views per month, putting it in 72nd place overall among websites worldwide and 11th place overall among websites in the United States (per Alexa.com on June 28, 2016), with more than 49.4 million unique monthly visitors in the United States alone (per Compete.com ...
The US based company ROFIN-SINAR Technologies Inc. develops, manufactures and sells laser sources and laser-based solutions for industrial material processing. On 7 November 2016, the company was acquired by Coherent Inc. [1] [2] From 1996 to November 2016, ROFIN-SINAR Technologies’ shares have been traded on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange.
The technical details of coherent optical modules were proprietary for many years, but have recently attracted efforts by multi-source agreement (MSA) groups and a standards development organizations such as the Optical Internetworking Forum. Coherent optical modules can either plug into a front panel socket or an on-board socket.
Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).
Coherent addition (or coherent combining) of lasers is a method of power scaling. It allows increasing the output power and brightness of single-transversal mode laser. Usually, the term coherent addition applies to fiber lasers. As the ability of pumping and/or cooling of a single laser is saturated, several similar lasers can be forced to ...
