# Council Regulation (EC) No 428/2009 of 5 May 2009 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports, transfer, brokering and transit of dual-use items (Recast), Division [6A205]: "Lasers", "laser" amplifiers and oscillators, other than those specified in 0B001.g.5., 0B001.h.6. and 6A005, as follows:


NB:
For copper vapour lasers, see 6A005.b.
a..Argon ion "lasers" having both of the following characteristics:
1..Operating at wavelengths between 400 nm and 515 nm; and
2..An "average output power" greater than 40 W;
b..Tunable pulsed single-mode dye laser oscillators having all of the following characteristics:
1..Operating at wavelengths between 300 nm and 800 nm;
2..An "average output power" greater than 1 W;
3..A repetition rate greater than 1 kHz; and
4..Pulse width less than 100 ns;
c..Tunable pulsed dye laser amplifiers and oscillators, having all of the following characteristics:

e..Para-hydrogen Raman shifters designed to operate at 16 μm output wavelength and at a repetition rate greater than 250 Hz;
f..Neodymium-doped (other than glass) "lasers" with an output wavelength between 1 000 and 1 100 nm having either of the following:
1..Pulse-excited and Q-switched with a pulse duration equal to or more than 1 ns, and having either of the following:
a..A single–transverse mode output with an "average output power" greater than 40W; or
b..A multiple-transverse mode output having an average power greater than 50 W; or
2..Incorporating frequency doubling to give an output wavelength between 500 and 550 nm with an "average output power" of more than 40 W;
g..Pulsed carbon monoxide (CO) "lasers", other than those specified in 6A005.d.2., having all of the following:
