Abstract
Industrial supercontinuum white light lasers can now be found in some of the most demanding industries such as semiconductor quality control, food sorting, and optical device characterization. The demand from emerging markets like plastic recycling, food sorting, metrology, and characterization of optical components for mobile phones is rising and here white light lasers are a key enabling technology. The robust all-fiber design of our lasers makes them reliable and maintenance-free with low cost of ownership when compared to alternative light sources. By use of spectroscopic analysis or hyper spectral imaging, large scale production facilities can install fast online sorting whereby different grades and qualities can be sorted based on each’s samples spectral response. This is dramatically improving quality and throughput while reducing waste. This is only one of many success stories from emerging markets within sorting and device characterization.
