Design and realization of a conventional carbon dioxide laser was performed. Gas composition and gas pressure effects on laser output power were studied. Effects of input electrical power and current on laser power were also investigated. Beam profiling of the laser beam was performed by pinhole method. Laser beam parameters like beam divergence, beam propagation factor were measured. These properties were extracted from focusing a laser beam in near field and performing a number of cuts across the beam cross-section and measuring the beam diameter at these points. Diameter measurements were obtained by knife edge method. Laser beam parameters were obtained for three different power laser beams in two axes across the beam. Found parameters were compared with regard to beam power and beam cross-section axis. Also possibility of using the obtained laser beam in material processing was investigated.

An Automated calibration set up for laser beam positioning systems in visual inspection applications
Kiraz, Ercan; Dölen, Melik; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2013)
In this study, a calibration setup for laser beam positioning systems used in visual inspection applications in industry is designed and manufactured. The laser positioning systems generate movable parallel laser lines on the projection surface. There are several translational and angular error sources affecting the positioning accuracy of the laser lines on the projection surface. Especially, since the laser line positioning error caused by angular error sources increases with the distance between the lase...
Application of pulsed laser deposition and laser-induced ion implantation for formation of semiconductor nano-crystallites
WOLOWSKI, JERY; BADZIAK, JAN; CZARNECKA, ANNA; PARYS, PİETR; PISAREK, MARCİN; ROSINSKI, MARCİN; Turan, Raşit; Yerci, Selçuk (2007-03-01)
This work describes the application of laser ion source (LIS) for fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures, as well as relevant equipment completed and tested in the IPPLM for the EU STREP "SEMINANO" project and the obtained experimental results. A repetitive Pulse laser system of parameters: energy of similar to 0.8 J in a 3.5 ns-pulse, wavelength of 1.06 mu m, repetition rate of up to 10 Hz and intensity on the target of up to 10(11) W/cm(2), has been employed to produce Ge ions intended for ion implan...
Manufacturing of Functionally Graded Porous Products by Selective Laser Sintering
Erdal Erdoğmuş, Merve; Dağ, Serkan (2008-09-25)
Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a rapid prototyping technique which is used to manufacture plastic and metal models. The porosity of the final product obtained by SLS can be controlled by changing the energy density level used during the manufacturing process. The energy density level is itself dependent upon manufacturing parameters such as laser power, hatching distance and scanning speed. Through mechanical characterization techniques, it is possible to quantitatively relate the energy density levels ...
Study of neutrino interactions with the electronic detectors of the OPERA experiment
Agafonova, N; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2011-5-26)
The OPERA experiment is based on a hybrid technology combining electronic detectors (EDs) and nuclear emulsions. OPERA collected muon-neutrino interactions during the 2008 and 2009 physics runs of the CNGS neutrino beam, produced at CERN with an energy range of about 5-35 GeV. A total of 5.3x10(19) protons on target equivalent luminosity have been analysed with the OPERA EDs: scintillator strips target trackers and magnetic muon spectrometers equipped with resistive plate gas chambers and drift tubes, allow...
Properties of reactive O-2 ion beam sputtered TiO2 on Si wafers
Ulucan, S; Aygun, G; Ozyuzer, L; Egilmez, M; Turan, Raşit (2005-02-01)
Tio(2) thin films were deposited on silicon (100) p-type wafers, using the reactive ion beam sputtering method in high vacuum as an alternative to conventional Argon ion beam sputtering in an O-2 environment. Oxygen ions with 1000 eV energy were formed in a thruster and bombarded a high purity Ti target. The molecules of Tio(2) were deposited on a Si (100) wafer at various substrate temperatures. The structural and optical properties were analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy in the range o...
