Laser Diode Module, 1550 nm, 5 mW, Digital, Elliptical Beam

The LQA and LQD Series include a self-contained laser diode with superior optical quality, a very high precision current source and a PID temperature controller built in the module. These laser modules are ideal for demanding experimental setups where the temperature and current control are important.

All LQA and LQD diode lasers are available either in elliptical (E versions) or circular (C versions) output beam shape. Circular beams are generated using a micro lens built in the diode laser and exhibit better quality than elliptical versions. The wavelengths indicated are typical values only, due to the nature of FP lasers.

Newport's LPMS Series Power Supplies (sold separately) are more than just power supplies. This is a key instrument that will make the LQA and LQD laser diode modules CDRH-compliant. It provides an interlock input, key enable switch, delayed start-up, and laser active indicator. The laser modules in the wavelength range of 375-473 nm require an 8/12 VDC power source. Those in the range of 635-2330 nm require a 5 VDC power source. (Note: Warranty is not applicable when a custom power supply is used to drive the laser diode module.)
