About This Webinar
High-power diode lasers have progressed significantly since their first appearance in the market. Today, these lasers are able to utilize high power levels and high-percentage electro-optical efficiencies for selected wavelengths. The wavelength range has also been dramatically extended, taking advantage of a variety of material systems, including GaN (blue), InGaAlAsP (red), GaAs (NIR), InP (NIR), and GaSb (MIR).
Additional techniques support the manufacture of special products, including line narrowing and spectral locking, with extraordinary results. Jörg Neukum, Ph.D., provides an overview of this technology, addressing wavelengths, cooling technologies, beam shaping, and power levels. He also presents selected examples of the realized performances.
Who should attend:
Engineers, researchers, manufacturers, and integrators who are interested in the capabilities of high-power diode lasers. Those who work with or design OEMs. Anyone who works with cameras, sensors, LEDs, and test & measurement in industries such as aerospace, automotive, communications, defense, energy, and semiconductors.
