Laser Type: Fiber-Coupled-Laser-Diodes

Fiber coupled lasers ensure efficient and precise light delivery by integrating the laser source with an optical fiber, minimizing losses and maintaining beam quality over long distances. Their compact, robust design allows for flexible routing and easy integration into various systems, making them ideal for applications in medical procedures, industrial manufacturing, and scientific research. Additionally, they offer superior beam quality, enhanced safety, and effective thermal management, making them a reliable and versatile choice for a wide range of applications.

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

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: 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.
