II-VI Suwtech and II-VI Laser Enterprise Launched Next Generation 808 nm Laser Diode Products

Posted  by GoPhotonics II-VI Incorporated (now Coherent Corp.)

II-VI Suwtech and II-VI Laser Enterprise, both owned by subsidiaries of II-VI Incorporated announced the launch of their next generation 808nm multi-mode high power laser diode single emitter portfolio at Laser World of Photonics.712370

II-VI’s 808nm laser diode single emitter chip delivers output powers above 10W and with improved reliability that enables high power fiber coupled modules pumping in material processing and medical applications.

The 808nm fiber coupled modules offer output powers from 15W up to 30W with the same mechanical dimension and fiber configuration (200um fiber core/0.22NA). The fiber coupled products are an expansion of the high volume generic ‘BMU’ single emitter platform. The high output power/brightness BMU’s have an easy to mount compact hermetic package. DPSS manufacturers, medical instrument makers and other subsystem developers can upgrade their product performance by replacing low power modules, simplify their product configuration by using fewer modules and improve their product reliability by less fiber management complexity.

II-VI’s chip design and high volume package manufacturing allows an extended lifetime for their modules. Wavelength range and fiber connector types are tailored to meet specific customer applications. The laser diode chip is available with open heat sink on an AlN submount or on a C-mount.
