ABSTRACT:
A device permitting a single primary laser producing a collimated beam at a given wavelength, to be used for different purposes by converting the collimated beam to a beam of different wavelength. The device comprises a secondary laser disposed within a body removably attached to the distal end of an articulated arm delivery system attached to the primary laser. Preferably, the secondary laser is interchangeable with respect to the delivery system thus to extend the wavelength (color) coverage of the primary laser according to the required wavelength conversion. The secondary laser may include an optical crystal or a circulated organic dye solution within a removable cell or reservoir. Appropriate lenses are provided to focus the primary beam and to determine the spot diameter of the conversed beam.
