Laser Type: VCSEL

A Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) is a type of semiconductor laser diode that emits light vertically from the surface of the fabricated chip, unlike traditional edge-emitting lasers that emit light from the edge. This unique structure involves several layers, including an active region where light is generated, sandwiched between two highly reflective mirrors known as Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBRs). These DBRs reflect the light back and forth through the active region, amplifying it before it exits perpendicularly from the surface of the chip.

Wavelength Range: Visible

Visible lasers excel in precision, brightness, and versatility. They are essential in manufacturing for accurate cutting, in medicine for surgeries like LASIK and diagnostics. Their high visibility makes them ideal for pointers, alignment tools, and surveys. They are crucial in optical communication, entertainment light shows, measurement tools like rangefinders and LIDAR. Additionally, they are valuable in scientific research and education for their consistent, precise light.

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.
