Pulsed Laser Diode Modules

The pulsed laser diode driver is directly integrated into the modules.

No larger than a matchbook, the LS series is extremely powerful and adjustable. This makes them particularly well suited for R&D applications. In fact, because even a single module offers so many different control options, the time leading up to product launch can be reduced by a significant margin.

The L-CUBE series is new. Similar to the LS series, both the driver and the pulsed laser diode are integrated in a compact cube with an edge length of only 40 mm. The L-CUBE can very easily be mounted in an optical bench or assembly.

These easy-to-use modules are available with a 850 nm, 905 nm and a 1550 nm source. The LS series is a standard module in which the pulse power, pulse length, and repetition rate are already specified. This simply requires a +12V direct current voltage source and a TTL trigger signal.

The metal housing is coated with nickel and improves the EMC of and for this module. In addition to the LS series and the L-Cube standard PLD modules, OEM versions with fixed parameters and other models are also available.

 

 

General Information 

about Pulsed Laser Diodes

Pulsed laser diodes (PLDs) are available in the wavelengths 850 nm, 905 nm and 1550 nm.

All of our PLDs are developed and manufactured at our Laser Components production facility in Canada. Customer-specific requests can, therefore, easily be accommodated. 

 

Fields of Applications

  • Laser rangefinding
  • Speed guns
  • Laser scanners
  • Defense & security
  • Automotive industry
  • Medical technology
  • Measurement technology

Different Wavelengths - High-Quality Housing
The standard range consists of pulsed laser diodes with the following wave-lengths: 850 nm, 905 nm, or 1550 nm. We differentiate between two product lines: high-end PLDs and low-cost PLDs. Both product lines have a high-quality metal housing in  common.

Low-Cost Series
The high-volume/low-cost series con-sists of pulsed laser  diodes in a metal housing that are best suited for  consumer  products such as laser rangefinders. SMD housings are also  available. In 2018 our first 80 W PLD received automotive qualification according to AEC-Q101.

SMD PLDs
The SMD-Option allows for high laser powers from a small housing.

QuickSwitch® PLDs
The QuickSwitch® series integrates the key components of the pulsed laser drive circuit into the same com-pact TO package as the laser chip. With a pulse width of only 2.5 ns, the QuickSwitch® devices are currently the fastest hybrid pulsed laser diodes available. Output powers from 72 W are offered.

Cost-Effective, Even When Produced in Small Amounts

Close cooperation between customer and manufacturer has been our greatest success factor in manufacturing optimally customized  products. Our customers are often pleasantly surprised by how reasonable our prices are for customized products.

LASER COMPONENTS Canada develops pulsed laser diodes (PLDs)  suited to your field of application. Almost all product parameters can be adjusted e.g., wavelength, output power, and housing. It is also possible to develop completely new products. 

Uncompromising Quality
Quality is an absolute imperative. The consistent application of  quality  management methods has resulted in the continuous advancement of  products. New products and increasing efficiency are in constant demand.

As part of quality control, a life test rack was developed to simulate very different applications. The pulsed laser diodes being tested on the life rack are pushed beyond their approved limitations.
