What is Mopa laser source 
MOPA laser, the full name of Master Oscillator Power-Amplifier, is a laser structure composed of a cascade of laser oscillator and amplifier.
In the industrial world, MOPA laser refers specifically to a more "intelligent" nanosecond pulse fiber laser composed of an electrical pulse-driven semiconductor laser seed source and a fiber amplifier.
The following is a detailed introduction to MOPA lasers:

1. Basic components of MOPA laser

MOPA laser consists of two parts: Master Oscillator and Power Amplifier.
The main oscillator is responsible for generating high-quality seed light, and the power amplifier amplifies the seed light to achieve high-power output.

2.Characteristics of MOPA laser

1. **Frequency Adjustability**: The laser pulse frequency generated by the main oscillator can be adjusted by adjusting the main oscillator.
2. **Power amplification**: The power amplifier can significantly enhance the power output of the laser to meet the needs of various high-power applications.
3. **Adjustable pulse width**: By controlling the pulse width of the main oscillator, the output pulse width can be accurately adjusted. This feature enables MOPA lasers to more precisely control the laser energy distribution during processing.
4. **High flexibility**: MOPA lasers have high flexibility and are suitable for various application scenarios that require precise control of laser parameters.

4.Key Features of MOPA Lasers

  1. Adjustable Pulse Width: MOPA lasers allow for variable pulse width (ranging from nanoseconds to microseconds), which provides flexibility in marking different materials. This adaptability helps to control heat input and achieve the desired marking effect.

  2. High Precision: The ability to fine-tune laser parameters allows for high-precision marking, making MOPA lasers ideal for applications that require detailed and intricate patterns.

  3. Versatility: MOPA lasers are suitable for a wide range of materials, including metals (such as stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium), plastics (like ABS, PVC, PET), and other sensitive materials.

  4. High-Quality Marking: MOPA lasers can produce high-contrast, sharp, and clear markings on various surfaces, making them suitable for applications requiring permanent marks, such as serial numbers, barcodes, and QR codes.

  5. Minimal Thermal Impact: With the ability to adjust the pulse duration, MOPA lasers reduce the risk of heat-induced damage such as burning, melting, or warping on heat-sensitive materials, allowing for cleaner and more accurate marks.

  6. High Peak Power: The high peak power of MOPA lasers makes them efficient for deep engraving, surface etching, and precise marking on challenging materials.
