V-Assembly Dual-Head Efficient Resonator (VADER) for Remote Sensing Applications

The V-Assembly Dual-head Efficient Resonator (VADER) is a diode pumped, Nd:YAG, Q-switched, positive branch unstable resonator that employs a split laser gain module designed for optimal efficiency and thermal lensing compensation.

Lifetest of the High Output Maximum Efficiency Resonator (HOMER) Laser for the SAFFIRE Instrument on NASA's DESDynI Project

We update the status of a diode-pumped, Nd:YAG oscillator that is the prototype laser for NASA's DESDynI mission. After completing TRL-6 testing, this laser has fired over 5.5 billion shots in lifetesting.
