The unique architecture of the G1+ Laser System allows diffraction limited operation over a wide range of user adjustable pulse repetition frequencies, pulse widths, and duty cycles. In contrast to conventional solid-state lasers, the output beam spatial properties, such as beam diameter, divergence, and pointing, are largely independent of the system operating parameters.
