    Dye Laser: Al-Hassan Kenaan BMDV-6131

    Dye lasers use an organic dye dissolved in a liquid solvent as the active laser medium. There are two main types of constructions - one where the dye is pumped through a capillary tube, and another where it is pumped through a nozzle. Dye lasers can produce different wavelengths depending on the type of dye used, and have efficiencies over 25%. While they are useful for medical applications like dermatology, dye lasers also have disadvantages such as high costs for some dyes and frequencies. Proper maintenance is needed to ensure the laser tubes remain sealed and the output calibration is accurate.

    DYE LASER

    DYE LASER: INTRODUCTION
    • Dye laser is known as a liquid laser.
    • Liquid laser are the types of lasers that use a liquid as the active medium.
    • Dye/Liquid laser can have different types of solutions for its medium, such as
    rhodamine (540-60nm)), fluorescein (530-560nm), and stilbene (410-
    480nm), etc..

    CONSTRUCTION
    • Dye lasers can be constructed in two different ways, those ways are
    depending on how the dye is pumped through.
    • First type of configuration is when the dye is pumped through a capillary
    tube from the storage tank. This makes the output of the laser to pass through
    the Brewster window to the coupler which has a 50% reflective mirror as
    shown in figure 2.

    Figure 2: Dae Notes


    CONSTRUCTION- CONTINUED

    • The second type of configuration constructions that you can find with the dye
    laser, is when the dye is pumped through a nozzle at high speed from the
    Brewster at an angle jet stream.
    • The laser then is reflected through two mirrors to the coupler, and as stated in
    the previous slide the coupler is only 50% reflective. Refer to figure 3 for
    better visual understanding.

    Figure 3: Dae Notes


    HOW IT WORKS
    • As stated before Dye lasers use active medium, this means that we use an
    organic type of dye that can be dissolved in a solvent like alcohol or water.
    • As we know some examples of the dyes that can be used are rhodamine
    (540-60nm)), fluorescein (530-560nm), and stilbene (410-480nm), etc..
    • Those dyes produce different types of wavelength, we need to use some type
    of filter in the tube to get the specific frequency that we are looking for, this
    frequency is determined by the type of dye.
    ADVANTAGES

    Efficiency can be greater than 25%.


    The diameter of the beam is less than most lasers.
    Can be constructed very easily.
    Can be visible form or non-visible form.
    Can have different wavelength ranges depending on the type of dye you use.
    DISADVANTAGES

    Cost effective when it comes to the type of dye you use.


    Some frequency require the use of a filter which can make it costly.
    Errors can occur when you use the wrong type of dye because the
    complexity of the chemical formulas.
    APPLICATIONS

    • Dye laser are mostly used in medical applications.


    • Some of those applications are used in:
     Dermatology and laser treatment of vascular lesions.
    Laser cancer diagnostics
    Urology
    PM ON DYE LASER

    • Because dye lasers use medium you have to make sure that the laser tupes
    are air gabbed and sealed.
    • You have to make sure that the calibration of the laser is accurate.
    • You have to make sure that the laser is accurate when it comes to the output
    that the laser is providing.
