Hi guys!
I'm new to these forums so I say hi before I make my post.
I want to set up a laser with a pink/magenta beam, and I have a few questions which I think was not addressed in other threads.
So to make such a beam I have to combine red with either blue (445-450 nm) or violet (405 nm) at dichroic mirrors. Most people in the forums say they used violet. But what sort of difference does it make if I use blue instead of violet?
I don’t have either the blue or violet modules to try it out myself, so that’s why I’m asking to know what kind of difference it would make to the resultant beam...
Also, don’t we have to mix red and blue/violet in a specific ratio (more red than blue/violet)? Do we need the two modules to have the same optical output power?
Cheers,
Roam
