Manufacturer/Distributor: FLC

Frankfurt Laser Company (FLC) is known for its innovation and its ability to provide customized solutions to meet specific customer requirements, including hard-to-source and specialized laser diodes. In 2024, the company celebrated its 30th anniversary, reflecting on a successful history of technological advancements that have significantly contributed to the development of the laser industry.

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 projects a concentrated beam of light using laser technology, often for the purpose of enhancing visibility in specific areas or on particular targets. It is commonly used in applications such as night vision, military operations, surveillance, astronomy, and photography, where precise and controlled lighting is required. These devices can emit light in various wavelengths, including visible and infrared, making them versatile for different environments and needs.

Wavelength Range: IR

Wavelength Range: Infrared radiation typically spans wavelengths from about 700 nanometers (nm) to 1 millimeter (mm). This range can be further subdivided into near-infrared (NIR), mid-infrared (MIR), and far-infrared (FIR). Near-Infrared (NIR): 700 nm to 1.4 micrometers (µm) Mid-Infrared (MIR): 1.4 µm to 3 µm Far-Infrared (FIR): 3 µm to 1 mm

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.
