Request InfoLaser Components Canada Inc.In addition to pulsed laser diodes, Laser Components now produces continuous wave laser diodes at 808 nm with 1000 mW power. The base material is InGa(Al)As/GaAs with a standard wavelength selection of +/- 3 nm. A power of 500 mW is already attainable at 1.1 A with this structure. The laser chip is embedded in a hermetically sealed 9-mm CD package. A monitor diode is integrated for performance control and regulation, especially suited for the configuration of medical devices. Other possible applications are printing, material processing, illumination or measurement technology.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra October 2022 IssueLaser Power MeterThe LabMax Touch Pro laser power meter from Coherent Inc. makes data acquisition and analysis for nW continuous wave lasers up to multi-kW, pulsed industrial lasers easy to access through an...Photonics Spectra January 2024 IssueCompact Laser WorkstationThe M1000 from FOBA Laser Marking & Engraving is a compact laser workstation with an integrated 3W UV / 5W UV / 10W green laser.
