StockerYale, Inc. (NASDAQ: STKR), a leading designer and manufacturer of structured light lasers, LED modules and specialty optical fibers for industrial OEMs, medical and defense markets, today introduced ColdRay, a new compact thermoelectrically cooled diode laser platform to its Lasiris(TM) laser product line.

A temperature-stabilized device, the ColdRay laser offers excellent wavelength, power, pointing stability and long product lifetime. In addition, ColdRay’s thermoelectrical system maintains a constant laser diode temperature, which allows for its use in applications demanding consistency. Offering a wide range of wavelengths such as 375, 405, 445, 642, 660, 780 and 830 nm, the ColdRay series is intended for applications including flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, DNA sequencing, bio-detection, in addition to industrial applications.

“The compact nature of the ColdRay laser makes it attractive for applications that have space constraints and high performance requirements,” stated Nicolas Cadieux, General Manager of StockerYale Canada. “Furthermore, the platform is designed to accommodate our sophisticated beam shaping optics, which provides our customers with a turnkey solution.”

For applications requiring uniform flat-top illumination, the ColdRay laser can be seamlessly integrated with the StockerYale’s Flat-Top Generator, a patented, innovative refractive beam shaper that converts a Gaussian beam to flat-top with practically no optical loss. The Flat-Top Generator is compatible with UV, visible and near-IR laser sources.
