Heat sinks for laser systems

Ceramic components used in laser systems offer significant advantages over metal and polymeric parts in laser systems. When adequately designed and machined they perform as excellent long-life and reliable heat sinks. Applications Ceramic heat sinks are ideal to act as electrical insulators and dissipate heat generated by components in the following applications : passively cooled high-power laser diodes stacks high-power laser diodes diode lasers semiconductor lasers fibre lasers Products Microcertec offer the following custom-made components : - plane heatsinks : very thin substrates : 100 µm to 200 µm with 5 to 10 µm tolerance on thickness and flatness substrates in standard thicknesses : 300 to 500 µm with 5 µm or better tolerance on thickness and flatness grooved substrates : 150 µm-grooves with pitch tolerance of 5 µm substrates with holes : wall thickness of 200 µm hole to edge, and 500 µm hole to hole - specific heatsinks : precision-ground customized features, plane...
