• Spectra-Physics, Inc. - (Note: this company is referenced in lede for the existing Wikipedia article, Coherent, Inc.). Spectra-Physics is a laser company founded in September 1961 in the United States (based in Mountain View, California; since 2010, in Santa Clara, California), the first laser-specialized company. They introduced the first commercial bar-code scanner in 1974. Spectra-Physics has been part of the Newport Corporation in Irvine, California, since 2004.

The founders (Herbert M. Dwight, Robert Rempel, Arnold Bloom, Earl Bell) came from the environment of Varian Associates (a manufacturer of measuring instruments, for example NMR, EPR) and Stanford University, and at the time of its foundation, lasers were not the target, which were only at the beginning of the 1960s (more precisely at the end of 1960). However, they also wanted to avoid direct competition with Varian, which was very well endowed with patents and had reluctantly seen the departure of the founders of Spectra-Physics. In mid-1962, they presented the first gas laser in collaboration with Perkin-Elmer (based on the patents of the first gas laser, the helium-neon laser, developed at Bell Laboratories in 1960) and initially the division was a joint venture with Perkin-Elmer. In addition, they initially had some research contracts with government organizations such as NASA in other fields.

In the early years, each employee also received shares in the company.

Their first product was an infrared gas laser, the model 100. In 1962 they launched the first commercially available CW laser (model 110, it operated in the visible spectral range) and in 1968 the first commercial laser with fashion coupling. In 1976, they launched the first Nd:YAG laser with unstable resonator (Quanta-Ray DCR 1).

In 1964, Earl Bell and Arnold Bloom invented the ion laser at Spectra-Physics (first mercury, then argon), for which they received the basic patents and formed the basis of their second generation of gas lasers.

In 1966, former members (Eugene Watson founded Coherent.

In 1974, they introduced the first commercial barcode scanner. The bar codes division was acquired by PSC Inc. in 1996.

In the late 1970s, they turned to gas lasers as well as solid-state lasers and semiconductor lasers. In 1983, they pioneered the introduction of high-performance diode lasers (SDL, Spectra Diode Laboratories, a joint venture with Xerox PARC, one of the founders was Donald Scifres). In the 1980s and 1990s, they developed a series of DPSS lasers.

In 1988, the industrial division went to Siemens, which is included in Rofin-Sinar.
