Powerful homemade diode pumped Pr:Ylf laser!
In this video, I show you a laser setup using a Pr:Ylf crystal. This crystal can emit at multiple visible wavelengths (green, orange, red and more) which is quite rare for laser gain media.
► This setup also reaches quite high output powers (above 300mW) and shows some beautiful TEM modes!
► If you want to know more about this laser, I've written an article on my website about it: www.sci-projects.org/blog/diode-pumped-prylf-laser-emitting-at-640-604-and-523nm
► This project also has a GitHub-Page for more details: github.com/NiklasHammerstone/PrYlf-Laser
►If you liked this video please give it a thumbs up :) If not, give it a thumbs down and/or write in the comments why so.

How to align pulsed lasers with plane mirrors
Переглядів 1,3 тис.2 роки тому
Laser resonators with plane mirrors (typical for Nd:Yag or ruby lasers) are notoriously hard to align without special equipment. In this video, I show how it can be done quite precisely in a home workshop like mine. All you need is a second collimated laser (like a HeNe) and an adjustable mirror. This method works quite reliably and without much prior experience in this field. Great videos abou...
A continous wave diode pumped RUBY LASER
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
► My blog post about this laser: www.sci-projects.org/blog/cw-diode-pumped-ruby-laser ► Thanks so much to Dr. Walter Luhs for his help in this project! This is the paper I based this design upon: dx.doi.org/10.1364/OSAC.2.000184 In this video, I show you, how I made a continous wave diode pumped ruby laser. This is quite an unusual build, since the vast majority of ruby lasers are pulsed. Altho...
A quite unusual homebuilt laser engraver
Переглядів 1,2 тис.3 роки тому
► In this video, I show you how I built a laser engraver which works by rotating mirror and therefore deflecting the beam in a controlled way. ► This whole machine is built from scratch using a Teensy 4.0, TMC2209 stepper drivers, stepper motors, optical components and more. ► Prototype video: ua-cam.com/video/GXrqjjgx8w8/v-deo.html ► Laser optics video: ua-cam.com/video/lOmr7BwdiJU/v-deo.html ...
How to make real rubies at home!

►In this video I show you how you can make real rubies at home using only arc welder! ►These are real rubies, but very poor quality, so they are not valuable. They also dont have the optical clarity to make laser rods.

Simple Laser Scanner with stepper motors!
Переглядів 16 тис.3 роки тому
GITHUB FOLDER BELOW ► In this video I show you the laser scanner I've been working on for the past few weeks. This machine turns mirrors very rapidly to create an image on plane. This is called "scanning" ► Normally this is done with high speed galvoactuators, but I wanted to try to do it with stepper motors ► GitHub Folder github.com/NiklasHammerstone/GalvoStep ►If you liked this video please ...

Building a Ventilation System - Making a Laser Cutter Ep. 8
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
► In this last episode we are going to make the ventilation and filtering system for the smoke the cutter produces ► If you want to make a Laser cutter, I'd strongly recommend making or buying such a system. ► I didn't specify any flow data or anything, because your system is very likely different, so it wouldn't be of much use. ►If you liked this video please give it a thumbs up :) If not, giv...
Making the hull - Making a Laser Cutter Ep. 7

► In this episode, I show you how I built the hull for the laser cutter ► This video was filmed pretty much during the entire build, which is why it looks quite different in different scenes. ► This hull protects the operator (me) from dangerous reflections of the laser beam and smoke. ►If you liked this video please give it a thumbs up :) If not, give it a thumbs down and/or write in the comme...
Installing the Laser Tube! - Making a Laser Cutter Ep. 6
Переглядів 3944 роки тому
► It's time for the laser tube to be installed! ► The Laser can now be focussed and fired. But this is of little use without a proper air filtration system, so this is what I will be building next. ► For all of you who think that this is not necessary, just light a bonfire in your room and keep it going for a few minutes to get a reasonable comparison. ►If you liked this video please give it a ...
