Figure 2 Power Supply
HeNe Laser Overview
A helium-neon laser, typically called a HeNe laser, is a small
gas laser with many industrial and scientific uses. The
primary wavelength they are used at is 632.8 nm, in the red
portion of the visible spectrum.
The gain medium of the laser is a mixture of helium and
neon gases in a 5:1 to 20:1 ratio that is contained at low
pressure in a sealed glass tube. The excitation source for
these lasers is a high voltage electrical discharge through an
anode and cathode at each end of the glass tube. The optical
cavity of the laser consists of a flat, high-reflecting mirror at
one end of the laser tube, and an output coupler mirror with
approximately 1% transmission at the other end.
HeNe Applications

•Cleanroom Monitoring Equipment
•Food Sorting
•Flow Cytometry
•Confocal Microscopy
•Imaging and Medical Equipment

HeNe lasers tend to be small, with cavity lengths of around 15 cm up to 0.5 m and optical output powers
ranging from 1 mW to 100 mW. Thorlabs offers output powers up to 50 mW.
HeNe Linewidth
A red HeNe laser wavelength is 632.816 nm in air, though it is often reported as either 632 nm or
633 nm. The wavelength gain curve is actually made of several longitudinal modes that fluctuate within
the range due to thermal expansion of the cavity and other external factors.
The linewidth of a HeNe laser is specific to the application. The axial mode structure of the HeNe laser
is characterized by the number of modes, the free spectral range (FSR), and the Doppler width (see
Figure 4 below). The linewidth of individual axial modes is usually small (~kHz) and is primarily
determined by external factors and measurement timescales rather than fundamental laser parameters. In
most interferometric applications, the most relevant parameter is the coherence length, which is
determined by the axial modes that are furthest apart. For a red HeNe laser, the coherence length is
approximately 30 cm.

Figure 4 HeNe Gain Curve Showing Cavity Modes
The laser process in a HeNe laser starts with the collision of electrons from the electrical discharge with
the helium atoms in the gas. This excites helium from the ground state to a long-lived, metastable
excited state. Collision of excited helium atoms with ground-state neon atoms results in excited neon
electrons.
Figure 5 HeNe Energy Levels
The number of neon atoms entering the excited states builds up until population inversion is achieved.
Spontaneous and stimulated emission between the states results in emission of 632.82 nm light along
with other emission wavelengths. From these states, the electrons quickly decay to the ground state. The
HeNe laser’s power output is limited because the neon upper level saturates with higher current, while
the lower level varies linearly with current.

The laser cavity can be designed with the correct mirrors and length to promote other wavelengths of
laser emission. There are infrared transitions at 3.39 μm and 1.15 μm wavelengths, and a variety of
visible transitions, including a green (543.365 nm, sometimes called GreeNe laser), a yellow
(593.932 nm), a yellow-orange (604.613 nm), and an orange (611.802 nm) transition. The typical red,
633 nm wavelength output of a HeNe laser actually has a much lower gain compared to other
wavelengths, such as the 1.15 μm and 3.39 μm lines.
Figure 6 HeNe Visible Laser Lines
HeNe Polarization
Unpolarized (Randomly Polarized) Beam
The output of an unpolarized HeNe laser consists of a rapidly fluctuating, linearly polarized beam whose
polarization orientation changes on a nanosecond time scale. Unpolarized lasers are ideal for
applications where there are no polarizing elements in the beam path. Depending on the time scale of an
application, large power fluctuations are possible.
Polarized Beam
The state of polarization in a polarized HeNe laser beam is linear, making these lasers ideal for
polarization-sensitive applications.

Part 4. Set-up
4.1. Mounting the Laser Head
The square housing sits securely on a flat surface, and no special mounting hardware is needed. The
front bezel has four #4-40 UNC holes to secure standard HeNe optional accessories.
4.2. Assembly
It is suggested that the HeNe Laser Quick Start Guide be used to assemble the laser system. Below are
the steps needed to assemble the laser system.
1) This laser system includes either a 120 or 240 VAC power supply designated by the part number
– HRP350 or HRP350-EC respectively. The power supply does not need to be manually set for
the appropriate regional current, but the correct mains voltage cord must be used.
2) Plug the three-hole, high-voltage cable from the laser into the front of the power supply. Confirm
that the plug is well-seated. Failure to plug the connector all the way in can result in the laser
failing to lase or arcing and damaging the power supply or laser head.
3) Connect the phono plug into the power supply.
4) Insert the interlock connector and twist until it locks in place. The power indicator light will turn
on, even if the interlock is not inserted or inserted fully, and the laser will not lase.
Incorrectly Inserted Correctly Inserted
5) Insert the power switch keys into the power supply.

Part 5. Operation
To operate the laser system, follow the following procedures.
1) Make sure the laser is pointing safely away from people and is securely mounted.
2) Turn the key safety switch on the back of the unit. NOTE: There is a 3 to 5 second CDRH safety
delay before the voltage turns on.

4) Some models may take up to 60 seconds to begin to lase (typically the 7" versions). If the laser
has not started lasing 20 seconds after turning the power on, you can turn the unit off and then
back on again. This will not damage the laser. Be sure to give enough time to allow the CDRH
safety delay to elapse before turning the system off and on.
5.1. Alignment Procedure
During shipment or rough handling, the Thorlabs model HRP350 and HRP350-EC laser may become
slightly misaligned and suffer a reduction in output power. The following procedure should be used to
optimize the laser alignment.
Tools Required
•(2) 1/16" Allen Wrench
•(1) Optical Power Meter
Procedure
1) Locate the two access holes for the alignment screws. These are located on the side of the
housing approximately 175 mm from the rear, at the top edge of the side label.
2) Insert one Allen key into each access hole and set up the optical power meter to monitor the laser
output power. Carefully tighten one of the adjustment screws only enough to produce a
measurable change in the laser output power. If the laser power increases, continue to tighten the
screw until a maximum in the laser output is observed. If the laser power decreases, loosen the
screw until the laser is at a maximum power. Repeat this procedure for the second adjustment
screw. In cases where large adjustments are made, it may be necessary to repeat this procedure a
second time in order to obtain the optimal performance.
WARNING
Avoid Exposure – Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. (FDA caution statement
21 CAR 1040.10(h)(1)(IV)). It will also void your warranty.
WARNING
Unauthorized modifications to the laser or power supply may cause irreversible damage to
the system, as well as result in possible hazardous radiation exposure. These modifications
will also void all warranties. Repairs to such modified equipment will be charged at the
current repair rate, plus the cost of any required parts.

Part 6. Troubleshooting
6.1. Technical Failures
Problem Fix
No light being emanated from the
laser Make sure that aperture is open.
Check to make sure:
•the power supply is set to the correct voltage,
•is plugged into a working outlet,
•the power cord is fully seated into the power supply,
•the phono plug is connected,
•the 3-port, high-power plug is firmly seated into the power supply,
and
•the aperture is open.
The laser can take up to 60 sec to begin to lase. Turning the power off then
on again can speed up the start time without damaging the laser. Note: there
is a built in CDRH safety delay of 4 - 5 seconds. Be sure to wait longer
than 5 seconds to turn the laser off then on.
The laser does not work and there is
something rattling around inside
the laser head tube
The glass gas tube may have broken during shipping. Please contact your
local tech support office for help.
The power supply does not turn on
The power supply Laser On
Indicator does not light
Make sure the power supply is plugged in.
There is a clicking noise in either the
power supply or laser Arcing in the laser head or the power supply can result in a flickering laser or
the laser not igniting at all. Turn off the power and contact your local tech
support office immediately.
The laser has low output power The laser requires 30 minutes to meet published specifications. Make sure to
let it warm up.
Make sure the laser is mounted correctly. See page 12 for proper mounting
techniques.
6.2. Application Trouble Shooting
Some sources of trouble for a HeNe laser do not come from the laser failing or being out-of-spec.
Instead, these lasers are not suited to the application. One common mis-application comes from a HeNe
laser, especially a low power one (0.5 mW) being used in a metrology application.
Environment is an important consideration as well. Dirty environments can cause the optics to become
contaminated and the power output to drop below expected levels. Unstable output beams can be caused
by noisy environments with large sources of vibrations. Proper mounting on an optical table can reduce
the effects of ambient vibrations. Temperature is also a factor. If the environment where the laser is
being used fluctuates in temperature, the output power can experience a large amplitude change. Even
blowing on the laser tube can cause the output power to fluctuate significantly.
Randomly polarized lasers are actually rapidly changing, single polarization lasers. Averaged over time,
these lasers appear as randomly polarized light. However, any polarization optics in the path (intentional
or unintentional) can cause large variations in the output power. These applications should only be used
with a polarized laser.

Red HeNe Laser System
12112-S01 Rev CB, August 31, 2010 Page 16 www.thorlabs.com
While a HeNe laser is less sensitive to variations caused by back reflections, they are not immune to it.
Large retro-reflections back into the laser can cause unpredictable power changes. A free-space isolator
can be used to reduce or eliminate these effects. If possible, only a small angular deviation is needed to
eliminate the back reflections.
These HeNe lasers are ill-suited to any application or experiment where single frequency or long
coherence length is required.
Noise, Oscillations, and Fluctuation Sources
There are many sources of noise, oscillations and fluctuations of the output of a HeNe laser. One of the
most common is from longitudinal modes drifting into and out of the gain curve. The frequency of these
fluctuations vary from very slow, less than a hertz, to as much as several kHz depending on the stability
of the environment.
Other, more constant sources of fluctuations include the following (with corresponding frequencies):
•Line noise from AC high voltage power supplies (50/60 Hz, 100/120 Hz, etc)
•Switching noise from DC high voltage power supplies (40 kHz)
•Plasma oscillation (tens of MHz)
•Transverse mode beat notes (hundreds of MHz)
•Axial mode beats (at FSR, hundreds of MHz)
