  • Actively cooled optical substrates for high average power reflective or diffractive optic
    Patent number: 11906812
    Abstract: Integrated active cooling of high-power reflective or diffractive optics uses substrates manufactured from low-expansion ceramics to flow coolant between the back surface of the substrate and chambers behind but adjacent a reflective front surface, in a direction transverse to the front surface, to thereby achieve much greater average power handling than known cooling techniques.
