Laser Type: Laser-Diode

Laser diodes distinguish themselves through their production of coherent, monochromatic, and highly directional light. This unique combination of properties grants them exceptional precision, efficiency, and versatility, rendering them indispensable in a broad spectrum of applications, from fiber optic communications and medical technology to industrial measurements and consumer electronics.

Laser Type: Superluminescent-Diodes

A Superluminescent Diode (SLD) is a type of semiconductor light source that combines characteristics of both laser diodes and light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It produces light through spontaneous emission, like an LED, but with a much broader spectrum and higher brightness, akin to a laser diode.

Wavelength Range: IR

Infrared radiation can be emitted by objects that are not hot enough to emit visible light, making it useful for thermal imaging and night vision. Various sensors and detectors, such as photodiodes and bolometers, are used to detect infrared radiation.

Mode: singlemode

Singlemode lasers are particularly useful in applications requiring precise control of the light beam. In optical communication, their high coherence and narrow beam allow for efficient coupling into optical fibers, which reduces signal loss and enables long-distance communication. In high-precision measurement systems, singlemode lasers provide the accuracy needed for applications such as interferometry, spectroscopy, and metrology. They are also ideal for sensing and imaging applications due to their focused and coherent beam, making them suitable for high-resolution imaging and precise sensing applications, including LIDAR and biomedical imaging. Furthermore, singlemode lasers are frequently used in scientific research, particularly in laboratories for experiments requiring precise and stable light sources, such as atomic and molecular spectroscopy. The design of singlemode lasers typically involves specific structural considerations, such as a small core size or a precise refractive index profile, to support only the fundamental transverse mode and ensure high beam quality and coherence.
