Andover, MA – April 25, 2022 – MKS Instruments, Inc.(NASDAQ: MKSI) introduces its Spectra-Physics® IceFyre® FS UV50 Laser, an industrial femtosecond laser with >50 W UV power, high reliability and low cost of ownership. The new laser offers exceptional versatility with pulse-on-demand (POD) and position-synchronized output (PSO) triggering and TimeShift™ programmable burst mode for optimal process performance. The IceFyre FS UV50 Laser is ideal for high throughput, highest quality micromachining of critical materials including polymers, metals, semiconductors, thin films and composites for demanding consumer electronics, clean energy, medical device, and industrial applications.
said Dave Allen, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Spectra-Physics lasers."IceFyre FS UV50 is an extraordinary leap forward in femtosecond UV laser technology, delivering industry-leading performance, versatility, reliability and cost of ownership for 24/7 manufacturing,"
"The new laser is another key demonstration of MKS leadership in micromachining, extending the Spectra-Physics portfolio across fs, ps and ns pulse widths and UV to infrared wavelengths."
IceFyre FS UV50 is a versatile laser with adjustable repetition rates from single shot to 3 MHz and TimeShift programmable pulse capability for flexible burst-mode operation. The laser’s It’s in the BoxTM design integrates laser and control electronics in a single, easy-to-install package.
Building on MKS’ deep experience and technology, IceFyre FS lasers pass extensive environmental qualification testing to ensure high reliability and low cost-of-ownership. Fully automated and computer controlled, the laser exhibits exceptional stability in power, beam parameters, and beam pointing during 24/7 operation to deliver high precision and reproducibility for demanding applications.
The new Spectra-Physics IceFyre FS UV50 laser will be featured at Laser World of Photonics, Messe München, Munich, Germany, April 26-29, 2022. Please visit MKS at booth A6.219 for a demonstration.
