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: Fiber-Coupled-Laser-Diodes

One of the key advantages of fiber coupled lasers is their ability to deliver high-quality laser light over considerable distances without significant degradation. This makes them ideal for applications that require precise and controlled laser delivery, such as medical procedures, industrial cutting and welding, telecommunications, and scientific research.

Laser Type: Wavelength-Stabilized-Laser-Diodes

The primary advantages of wavelength-stabilized laser diodes include high stability with minimal wavelength drift over time and under different operating conditions. They also produce light with a very narrow spectral width, which is essential for many precision applications, and the stable wavelength reduces phase noise, improving signal quality in communication systems.

Laser Type: DFB

Distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes are a type of semiconductor laser that are characterized by the integration of a diffraction grating within the active region of the laser. This grating serves a crucial role in the laser's operation, as it provides feedback by selectively reflecting specific wavelengths of light. The structure of the grating ensures that the laser emits light with a very narrow linewidth, which means the light is highly monochromatic and coherent.

Wavelength Range: IR

Applications with infrared (IR) wavelengths span across various fields. Near-Infrared (NIR) is used in fiber optic communications, medical imaging, and night vision equipment. Mid-Infrared (MIR) is important for spectroscopy, chemical sensing, and environmental monitoring due to the absorption characteristics of many molecules in this range. Far-Infrared (FIR) is utilized in thermal imaging, astronomy, and studying the thermal properties of materials.

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.
