Expands Product Line To Bio-Medical Instrumentation Market
SALEM, N.H.--(Business Wire)--
StockerYale, Inc. (NASDAQ: STKR), a leading designer and
manufacturer of structured light lasers, LED modules and specialty
optical fibers for industrial OEMs, medical and defense markets, today
introduced ColdRay, a new compact thermoelectrically cooled diode
laser platform to its Lasiris(TM) laser product line.

   A temperature-stabilized device, the ColdRay laser offers
excellent wavelength, power, pointing stability and long product
lifetime. In addition, ColdRay's thermoelectrical system maintains a
constant laser diode temperature, which allows for its use in
applications demanding consistency. Offering a wide range of
wavelengths such as 375, 405, 445, 642, 660, 780 and 830 nm, the
ColdRay series is intended for applications including flow cytometry,
confocal microscopy, DNA sequencing, bio-detection, in addition to
industrial applications.

   "The compact nature of the ColdRay laser makes it attractive for
applications that have space constraints and high performance
requirements," stated Nicolas Cadieux, General Manager of StockerYale
Canada. "Furthermore, the platform is designed to accommodate our
sophisticated beam shaping optics, which provides our customers with a
turnkey solution."

   For applications requiring uniform flat-top illumination, the
ColdRay laser can be seamlessly integrated with the StockerYale's
Flat-Top Generator, a patented, innovative refractive beam shaper that
converts a Gaussian beam to flat-top with practically no optical loss.
The Flat-Top Generator is compatible with UV, visible and near-IR
laser sources.
