The goal of this project is to develop compact efficient diode pumped solid state (DPSS) lasers for bio-instrument illumination and online environmental monitoring. The developed bio-instrument illumination lasers will emit light at a wavelength of 561 nm (yellow colour) and have ~5 W output power, while the developed online environmental monitoring lasers will emit light with wavelengths at mid-infrared (mid-IR) (~3400 nm). The yellow laser will be used for illumination in bio-instrument by increasing the intensity of the output light with only desired wavelength. The mid-IR laser will be used for detection of methane gas, one of the most harmful green house gases (GHG) that contribute significantly to climate change. Development of these lasers will give Canadian companies a competitive edge in the Canadian and worldwide market by allowing them to not only improve their existing products but create ones that currently do not exist.The development of yellow lasers will lead to an immediate improvement in bio-illumination technology which will directly impact Canadians by providing improved medical equipment and thus higher-quality healthcare. The development of online environmental monitoring lasers will enable wide detection of GHG emission, which will help to preserve the environment and help Canada become a leader in climate action that it wants to be. It is expected that Canadian companies will benefit significantly from the success development of the proposed lasers.

该项目的目标是开发紧凑高效的二极管泵浦固态(DPSS)激光器，用于生物仪器照明和在线环境监测。研制的生物仪器照明激光器将发射波长为561 nm(黄色)的光，输出功率为~5W，而研制的在线环境监测激光器将发射波长为中红外(中红外)(~3400 nm)的光。将黄光激光器用于生物仪器的照明，通过提高输出光的强度，只获得所需的波长。中红外激光将用于检测甲烷气体，这是对气候变化有重大贡献的最有害的温室气体(GHG)之一。这些激光的开发将使加拿大公司在加拿大和全球市场上具有竞争优势，使他们不仅可以改进现有产品，还可以创造目前不存在的产品。黄色激光的开发将立即导致生物照明技术的改进，这将通过提供更好的医疗设备和更高质量的医疗保健直接影响加拿大人。开发在线环境监测激光将使人们能够广泛检测温室气体排放，这将有助于保护环境，并帮助加拿大成为其想要成为气候行动的领导者。预计加拿大公司将从拟议中的激光器的成功开发中受益匪浅。
