Abstract
A clamp for holding at least one laser component during a facet coating process. The clamp includes a first elongate member for contacting a first side of the laser component(s) and a second elongate member for contacting a second side of the laser component(s). The clamp also includes a magnetic member overlying a third side of the laser component(s), and at least one magnet disposed adjacent to the magnetic member, so that the magnetic member is drawn towards the third side of the laser component(s). The first and second elongate members, the magnetic member and the at least one magnet hold the laser component(s) therebetween.
