1550nm 25mW SLD Laser Diode
An SLD (Superluminescent Diode/SLED) light source provides output power equivalent to that of a laser diode, a broad spectral width equivalent to that of an LED (Light-Emitting Diode), and low coherence. Thanks to its narrow active layer, similar to that of a laser diode, the light it emits is highly suitable for coupling into optical fibers, combining characteristics between those of LDs and LEDs. The 1.55μm SLD (Superluminescent Diode) module developed as an incoherent light source for various optical measurements. The device emits incoherent light with a broad spectral half-width and high output power from a polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF).
Product features:Broad spectral output; Polarization-maintaining fiber coupling; Low coherence; High stability; Intelligent control
Part Number:MP-SLD-1550-25-A81-14BF-PA
Application area:Optical Coherence Tomography | Fiber-optic gyroscopes | Fiber-optic sensing | Device testing | Biological detection
