High power 685nm singlemode laser diodes from QD Laser

QD Laser have introduced the QLF063x-85A0 series high power deep red laser diodes with a typical wavelength of 685nm at 100mW (25°C). The QLF063x-85A0 series are based on QD Laser's high reliability Quantum Well structure and offer high efficiency operation with a typical drive current of 125mA (2.35V) and Slope Efficiency of 1.17W/A (5mW-100mW). Farfield beam divergence is 9° (horizontal) and 14° (vertical) FWHM with beam steer of ±3°. These laser diodes use industry-standard TO-56 packages with a flat window and internal Monitor Photodiode and are available...

Narrow beam 265nm & 280nm LEDs

Opto Diode Corporation have introduced lensed versions of their 265nm and 280nm UVC LEDs. The new OD-265-003 and OD-280-003 LEDs feature industry-leading chip technology enabling high optical powers of 0.58mW (265nm) and 0.75mW (280nm) at 20mA drive current. Packaged in industry-standard TO-46 format with a lensed cap both devices offer a narrow beam angle of just 9° FWHM. Both LEDs incorporate a protection diode to eliminate the risk of damage due to reverse bias. Opto Diode claim industry-leading reliability with an "L70" (degradation to 70% of initial output)...

OtO Photonics' RedSparrow NIR MEMS spectrometer

OtO Photonics' new RedSparrow (RS) series extends their proprietary MEMS-based grating-collimator technology into the NIR region. RedSparrow is extremely compact, measuring just 40 x 40 x 18 mm³ (<30cm³) including the removable external control board, dramatically smaller than OtO's own SideWinder C-T NIR spectrometer (~300cm³) which is itself considered to be a compact design. Despite its compact form-factor RedSparrow's rigid metal package and optical bench provide excellent thermal, humidity and shock/vibration stability performance. RedSparrow features a...

ODC introduce 265nm & 280nm LEDs

Opto Diode Corporation have introduced two new UVC LEDs emitting at 265nm and 280nm. The new OD-265-001 and OD-280-001 LEDs feature industry-leading chip technology enabling high optical powers of 0.85mW (265nm) and 1.2mW (280nm) with a medium beam angle of 70° FWHM. Packaged in industry-standard TO-46 format with a quartz window cap the LEDs incorporate a protection diode to eliminate the risk of damage due to reverse bias. Opto Diode claim industry-leading reliability with an "L70" (degradation to 70% of initial output) of greater than 1000 hours when operated at 20mA DC in an...

OtO Photonics' PocketHawk compact 330-1050nm spectrometer

OtO Photonics' PocketHawk (PH) series are crossed-cavity Czerny-Turner spectrometers operating from 330nm to 1050nm. PocketHawk offers the performance benefits of classic C-T cavity designs in a significantly reduced package of just 65 x 65 x 25.2mm³ (<107cm³), including the external control board. This is dramatically smaller than OtO's own SmartEngine C-T spectrometer (~300cm³) which is itself considered to be a compact design. Despite its compact form-factor PocketHawk offers excellent performance with high optical resolution, high sensitivity, low stray light, and...

OtO Photonics introduce crossed-cavity spectrometer

OtO Photonics' new HummingBird (HB) series are crossed-cavity Czerny-Turner spectrometers operating from 180nm to 1100nm. HummingBird offers the performance benefits of classic C-T cavity designs in a significantly reduced package of just 83 x 75.5 x 26.75mm³ (<168cm³), dramatically smaller than OtO's own SmartEngine C-T spectrometer (~360cm³) which is itself considered to be a compact design. Despite its compact form-factor HummingBird sacrifices none of the performance of OtO's highest selling SmartEngine spectrometers and offers high optical resolution, high sensitivity,...
