1 Product Presentation Breakthrough in Interferometric (IF) Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) Writing Process BraggStar TM Industrial-LN (line narrowed) Heavy Duty Performance 5 mm Temporal Coherence Length TuiLaser AG UK agents: Photonic Solutions PLC

2 A Special Light Source for Interferometric Process Our Customers Choose TuiLaser s UV Light Sources Because They Know They Can Count On Their Reliability And Stability Laser Beam Phase Mask Introducing the BraggStar TM Industrial-LN with 5 mm temporal coherence length Adjustable Mirror Interference Pattern BraggStar TM Industrial-LN technology extends to the IF FBG writing process The longer coherence length increases the flexibility of the interferometric method and saves phase masks The picture shows the IF method by Talbot: Extended temporal coherence length and superior beam quality allows the variation of grating periodicity by changing the overlap angle using the same phase mask

3 Comparison of light sources for the IF FBG process: The Brand-New BraggStar TM Industrial-LN Provides Our Customers With More Added Value As An Frequency Doubled Argon Ion Laser Low initial investment BraggStar TM Industrial-LN is only half the price than e.g. for common frequency doubled argon ion lasers BraggStar TM Industrial-LN needs less phase masks Low operating costs Less power consumption (40 kw vs. 1 kw!) Almost no cooling is required Frequency Doubled Argon Ion Laser vs. BraggStar Industrial-LN kusd Initial Investment Costs in kusd 12,5 0 Running Costs p.a. in kusd Frequency Argon Ion Laser BraggStar Industrial-LN

4 248 nm: Reliable 5 mm Temporal Coherence Length BraggStar Industrial; HV = 1500 V fringe contrast coherence length (FWHM) x T = 5.5 mm ± 0.2 mm (3.6 %) data gaussian fit longitudinal displacement x in mm

5 248 nm: Spatial Coherence In Horizontal Beam Direction FutureTube; HV = 1500 V coherence length (FWHM) x SP = 1.8 mm ± 0.09 mm (16%) data gaussian fit fringe contrast lateral displacement x in mm

6 Homogeneous Beam Profile One Of TuiLaser s Strength Is An Unmatched Excellent Beam Profile Because Of Ongoing Developments In Excimer Laser Technique Beam profile measured at the output coupler plane of a TuiLaser FutureTube TM Beam dimensions (FWHM) 6 mm vertical, 3 mm horizontal

7 248 nm: The Brand-New BraggStar Industrial-LN Provides Our Customers With Reliable Properties Of High-End Excimer-Laser Technology Traditionally ultra compact design high-end technology like Corona Preionization, Solid-State-Switch, Metal/Ceramic FutureTube TM Technology 1 billion pulses laser tube hands free operation 248 nm homogeneous beam profile excellent energy stability have been the outstanding properties of the BraggStar TM Industrial. Our scientists and researchers are working hard to meet the raising demands of the fiber grating industry so we succeeded again to push the specifications to new limits in the BraggStar TM Industrial-LN. The highlights: high temporal coherence length for more flexibility -> NEW for the FBG writing process low initial investment and low operating costs Interferometric potential substitution for expensive common frequency doubled argon ion lasers
