Also known as ESI. These lasers are used for Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and laser trimming (ex: for high precision IC resistors, microprobing)

Often the power supply and the laser have the same name (ie there is a 1:1 mapping with no compatibility across families).

ESI:

  • Wafer scribe laser
  • "ESI to acquire New Wave Research for $36M" (2007)

Misc notes:

  • Terminology
    • UV3: 355 nm, "third harmonic generation"
    • UV4: 266 nm, "fourth harmonic generation"
  • Ezlaze and LCS-II have very similar connectors. However, their orientation is switched / they are not compatible mechanically (without forcing...) or electrically
    • I think I tried just the servo connector once and it was semi compatible
