Laser Components' high-power pulsed laser diodes (PLDs) are said to be ideal for rangefinding, speed measurement, laser radar, security scanners, laser curtains and test and measurement systems.
The company produces the PLDs at its Canadian facility; single emitters, multi-junction PLDs, and stacks are available at 905nm and 1,550nm.
Customer-specific designs and other wavelengths (for example, 850nm, 930nm) are available upon request.
With the Algaas structure of the 905 series, Laser Components said users can expect high reliability, good beam properties and temperature stability.
At an efficiency of 1W/A, the stacks achieve a peak power of 120W at a pulse length of 150ns.
Multi-junction PLDs achieve a peak power of more than 220W.
The 1,550nm PLDs are said to be particularly well suited for the production of 'eye-safe' rangefinders.
They are also available as single elements, multi-junction PLDs, and stacks with a peak power of up to 50W.
