• Medical applications
• Imaging
High-resolution applications including optical data storage, image recording,
spectral analysis, printing, point-to-point free-space communications and
frequency doubling all require diffraction-limited sources. Faster writing, wider
dynamic range and better signal-to-noise ratio may be achieved with JDSU’s
high-reliability 5400 Series single-mode diode lasers.
Available in power levels up to 200 mW kink-free, this advanced diode laser
combines a quantum well structure and a real-refractive index-guided single-
mode waveguide to provide high power, low astigmatism, narrow spectral width
and a single spatial mode Gaussian far field. Our 5400 Series diode lasers are
among the most reliable high-power diode lasers available in the industry today.
The 5400 Series diode lasers operate in single longitudinal mode under some
conditions. Like in all Fabry-Perot index-guided diode lasers, spectral broadening,
mode hopping and longitudinal mode instability may occur due to small changes
in drive current, diode-junction temperature or optical feedback.
The unique diode structure features high reliability with long operating life and
very low early failure rate. The highest brightness (20 MW/cm² steradian) is
provided by our 5430.
