LASER COMPONENTS designs and manufactures a range of pulsed laser diodes (PLDs) at our facility in Canada. These PLDs are designed to be overdriven for short periods, enabling very high peak power (up ...

Diode lasers represent a viable ... OptoRes demonstrates high-speed OCT using SOAs in ring cavities. ... This is the reason ultrashort pulsed lasers are used for industrial ...

Short pulse diode pumped Q-switched nanosecond Nd:YVO4 lasers has been introduced by EKSPLA. Featuring short 6-14 ns pulse duration, up to 40 kHz repetition rate and external TTL triggering, the NL640 ...

Scientists have captured the moment a laser "comes to life"—and what they found challenges long-held beliefs. Using a special ...

During a pulsed current test, you measure the laser diode's optical output power with a series of current pulses. Increase the amplitude of each successive pulse so you “sweep” the current from no ...

Milpitas, CA — January 6, 2004 – Linear Technology Corporation introduces a highly integrated 3.2Gbps VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) diode driver for short reach and medium reach ...

I use simpler method. Connect laser diode to 5 V supply and 470 Ohm resistor. No lasing – go lower with resistance, to 390 Ohms. No lasing, go lower to 330 Ohms, etc … until lasing starts.

Drives both single diodes and arrays with forward voltages up to 48 volts Miniature air-cooled module just 4.425" H x 4.975" W x 2.125" D (112 x 126 x 54 millimeters) in size, ideal for OEM ...

Vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) have been around since 1979 and are a type of semiconducting laser diode. Since their creation by Bell Laboratories, they have been used to prevent the ...
