Laser Type: Laser-Diode

Laser diodes are characterized by their ability to produce coherent light, meaning the light waves are in phase with each other both temporally and spatially. The light emitted is monochromatic, having a narrow wavelength range, which means it is almost of a single color. Additionally, laser diodes emit light in a highly directional beam, unlike LEDs, which emit light in multiple directions.

Laser Type: Superluminescent-Diodes

A Superluminescent Diode (SLD) is a semiconductor light source that combines the high brightness and broad spectral output of laser diodes with the low coherence of LEDs, making it ideal for applications like optical coherence tomography and fiber optic gyroscopes. It achieves this by producing amplified spontaneous emission through a design that suppresses optical feedback and prevents coherent light formation.

Wavelength Range: IR

Wavelength Range: Infrared radiation typically spans wavelengths from about 700 nanometers (nm) to 1 millimeter (mm). This range can be further subdivided into near-infrared (NIR), mid-infrared (MIR), and far-infrared (FIR). Near-Infrared (NIR): 700 nm to 1.4 micrometers (µm) Mid-Infrared (MIR): 1.4 µm to 3 µm Far-Infrared (FIR): 3 µm to 1 mm
