Description:

Laser Type: CW-Laser-Diodes

Continuous-wave (CW) laser diodes are semiconductor devices that emit a continuous, unbroken laser beam when supplied with a constant electrical current.

Laser Type: Laser-Diode

A laser diode is a sophisticated semiconductor device that leverages the properties of the p-n junction and optical cavities to produce coherent, monochromatic, and directional light. Its unique characteristics make it invaluable in various technological applications.

Wavelength Range: Visible

Visible lasers have a broad array of applications. In communications, they are used in optical fiber systems for short distances. Medical applications include surgeries, eye treatments like LASIK, and various diagnostic tools. The entertainment industry employs visible lasers in light shows to create striking visual effects. In measurement and detection, laser rangefinders and LIDAR systems use visible lasers for measuring distances and mapping, while bar code scanners often use red laser diodes. Research and development fields utilize visible lasers in spectroscopy, microscopy, and other scientific investigations to study material properties.

Mode: multimode

Multimode lasers typically exhibit lower beam quality compared to their single-mode counterparts, characterized by higher beam divergence and lower spatial coherence. However, they can achieve higher output powers because they utilize the gain medium more efficiently by supporting multiple modes. This makes multimode lasers particularly useful in applications where high power is more critical than beam precision, such as cutting, welding, and certain medical treatments.
