History

Coherent, Inc. was founded in 1966 by Dr. Terry J. Miller in Palo Alto, California. It began to become a commercially successful company in 1968. By 1971, the company had outgrown the limitations of its original site, and moved to a larger facility in the nearby Santa Clara Valley. In 1976, Coherent announced its first diode-pumped argon laser. Shortly after, Coherent was the first to develop a compact, affordable argon ion laser, establishing itself as the world's leading supplier of argon ion lasers. In 1999, the company acquired Sierra CNC Technologies, Inc., which built high-quality, computer controlled laser machining tools.
