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

A laser illuminator is a device that utilizes laser technology to project a beam of light for illuminating specific areas or targets. These devices are employed in various applications. In night vision, laser illuminators work with night vision equipment by emitting a beam of infrared light that enhances visibility in low-light conditions without being visible to the naked eye. In military and tactical operations, they are used to mark targets, guide missiles, or provide illumination in the dark, offering precise control over the light's direction. For surveillance and security, laser illuminators enhance visibility in areas under observation, particularly in low-light or complete darkness.

Wavelength Range: IR

Infrared radiation can be emitted by objects that are not hot enough to emit visible light, making it useful for thermal imaging and night vision. Various sensors and detectors, such as photodiodes and bolometers, are used to detect infrared radiation.

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.
