Manufacturer/Distributor: Osram

OSRAM, headquartered in Munich, excels in the development of sophisticated laser products, including color and infrared variants. Their portfolio includes advanced technologies such as edge-emitting lasers (EEL) and Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSEL). These products are integral to various industries, including consumer electronics, automotive, industrial, and medical fields, offering high-performance solutions for sensing and lighting requirements.

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.

Wavelength Range: Visible

Lasers operating within the visible spectrum emit light that appears as colors ranging from violet (at the shorter wavelength end) to red (at the longer wavelength end). For instance, violet light falls within the 380-450 nm range, blue from 450-495 nm, green from 495-570 nm, yellow from 570-590 nm, orange from 590-620 nm, and red from 620-750 nm.

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.
