Techniques for Construction of Flashlamp-pumped Dye Lasers

From Flashlamp-Pumped Liquid Dye Lasers to Diode-Pumped Solid-State Dye Lasers

Dye-laser technology has seen very significant progress over the last 39 years since the first demonstration of this device technology. Dye lasers offer efficient emission in the visible and near-infrared bands by direct generation of laser light. The initial emphasis was on the liquid-phase technology, and is the one very successful liquid laser. More recently the research emphasis has been so...

High - stability coaxial flashlamp - pumped dye laser U

:the output can be dramatically improved by isolating the dye cell thermally from the flashlamp and ensuring uniform axially symmetric flow of the dye throughout the cell. A quadraxial laser tube in which the dye cell is surrounded by an evacuated annulus to provide thermal isolation and is terminated by specially designed end caps to provide uniform injection and removal of the dye solution wa...

Successful treatment of cutaneous sarcoidosis lesions with the flashlamp pumped pulsed dye laser: a case report.

We report on the successful treatment of nodular cutaneous sarcoidosis lesions using a flashlamp pumped pulsed dye laser (FPDL). After a test treatment session with FPDL, we were able to achieve complete remission of the treated skin lesions. The nontreated areas increased in size and served as a control. The patient has since undergone further treatments of the remaining areas, with complete c...

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus: successful treatment with the 585 nm flashlamp-pumped pulsed dye laser.

Inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (IL VEN) is a benign hyperplasia of the epidermis of unknown cause that most commonly occurs on the lower extremities.l ? The lesion usually appears in early childhood and is persistent and pruritic. Treatments for ILVEN have been associated with high rates ofrecurrence and/or scarring. This is the first report of successful treatment of ILVEN with ...
