Abstract: A device for generating laser radiation includes a resonator, an optical assembly, and an adjustment device is provided. The optical assembly includes a movably arranged support element on which optical components are arranged, wherein an optical component is a device for deflecting laser radiation. The device for deflecting laser radiation of the optical assembly is arranged in the beam path of laser radiation generated by the resonator. The adjustment device changes the position of the optical assembly from a first position to another position relative to the resonator, wherein the position of the beam path of laser radiation emanating from the optical assembly in the first position remains unchanged by the adjustment of the optical assembly to the other position relative to the resonator. A corresponding method is also provided.

Abstract: A device for refracting beams of light, in particular laser beams, with at least one refraction component which can be adjusted by means of a drive unit. The drive unit is formed from the drive of a read/write head of a magnetic data storage component.

Abstract: A device for inscribing materials has a hand-held device and a support device. The devices have a laser, a refraction unit, a control unit and a power pack consisting of compact, transportable components. The devices are connected to one another by means of a cable or glass fiber connection.
