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.

Laser Type: Laser Illuminator

Laser illuminators excel in providing precise, controlled illumination in low-light conditions, making them invaluable in night vision, military operations, and surveillance. They are also highly effective in applications requiring focused lighting, such as astronomy and photography.

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: multimode

Multimode in lasers refers to the operation of a laser that supports multiple transverse modes, resulting in a light beam that is less coherent and more divergent compared to single-mode lasers. This means the laser emits light at multiple spatial patterns and sometimes at multiple frequencies, leading to a broader and more diffuse beam. Multimode lasers are useful in applications where high power and wide beam spread are required, such as in material processing, medical treatments, and certain types of optical sensors. The design of multimode lasers typically involves a larger core size or different refractive index profile to support multiple light paths.
