PLDs with Microoptics or Fiber Pigtails

Homogeneous Beam Profile in Pulsed Laser Diodes


D64-041

Diode lasers are inexpensive, energy saving, and easy to operate; therefore, they present a viable alternative to conventional lasers. However, laser diodes are semiconductor lasers and, thus, have worse beam characteristics than solid state lasers, for example.

Therefore, in order to capture each target in distance measurement technology the laser diodes require additional optical components that shape the laser beam.

FAC Lenses. LASER COMPONENTS Canada offers pulsed laser diodes (PLDs) with integrated microoptics, a so-called fast-axis collimation lens. Mounted directly in front of the laser diode chip, the divergence of the “fast” axis is reduced to 5 or 10 mrad.

Both a PLD and an FAC lens fit together into a tiny, hermetically-sealed TO-18 housing. The housing can withstand acceleration rates of > 1000 g/ms; thus, it meets the standards set by military technology.

PLDs with a fiber pigtail. An almost homogeneous beam distribution in laser diodes can be achieved by mixing the modes in an optical fiber.

These PLDs have an optical output power of up to 100 W. They are, therefore, ideally suited for medical applications in which a high amount of peak power must be delivered to a point as loss-free as possible.

Customer-specific products. LASER COMPONENTS produces more than just standard components. Our strengths include the quick and inexpensive development of customer-specific products. Inquire with us about your desired product!
