To all: Just finished reading the COHR 10Q. I highly recommend reading at least the MD&A section as it starts out with a comprehensive reveiw of the companies products. I cut and pasted just a section of the Telecommunications which to me at least is a new field for COHR. I should mention that they are sometime off from actually having their lasers packaged and approved in this area. But, it could someday prove to be very exciting I think. JDN

- OPTICAL TELECOMMUNICATIONS - We manufacture lasers and optical
components that enable increased bandwidth by allowing multiple
wavelengths of light to travel across the same fiber. We are developing
a new type of laser, an Optically Pumped Semiconductor laser, that
generates sufficient power to eliminate the need for multiple pump
lasers in fiber optic networks. Before this laser can be commercially
deployed, we must develop packaging for the product and the product
must meet Telcordia requirements. We also serve the fiber bragg grating
market with our ion and excimer lasers, and provide a new etalon for
optical telecommunications applications, which enhances the frequency
stability of laser transmitters when integrated into dense wavelength
division multiplexing, or DWDM, network components.
