Description

Pendar Technologies proposes to develop the next generation of high power quantum cascade laser (QCL) systems with output power of more than 65 Watts. Our source will consist of beam-combined monolithic arrays of QCLs.  The high power QCL system will benefit from latest advances in the area of active and passive thermal management solutions for high energy laser systems. Methods to manufacture the laser systems with high production yield will be studied.
