Laser Components designs a wide range of pulsed laser diode components, which are used for applications such as range finding, surveying and distributed temperature sensing. These PLDs are designed to be overdriven for short periods, enabling very high peak power output for a short duration.
The company offers these as discrete components or modules and is also able to offer pigtailed PLDs which couple the laser into an optical fibre. Recent improvements have enabled a new higher power pigtailed PLD option, which can provide 145W of 905nm light out of a 400µm core fibre with 0.22NA (part 905D4S3J08FP-40/22-F-0-01).
