Request InfoThe Optoelectronics Co. Ltd.The Optoelectronics Co.’s new laser diode collimators have high alignment accuracy and are aimed at OEMs and system integrators who are looking for a smaller and more affordable laser source. The collimators measure 6 × 8 mm and offer an elliptical output beam with a collimated diameter of 2.5 × 2 mm, which is bore-sighted for greater precision. By adjusting the distance between the laser diode and the collimating lens, the factory-fixed beam can be set for a collimated or focused output. The collimators are available in lasing wavelengths from 635 to 852 nm, with...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra June 2023 IssueEdge-Emitting Laser DiodeThe SPL S1L90H_3 surface-mount edge-emitting laser diode from ams OSRAM is a space-saving device featuring a narrow 110-µm aperture.
