Manufactured by Panasonic, these devices are ideal for use in optical disc drives, barcode readers, and a multitude of sensor-based applications, such as laser distance sensors for industrial use, or flow cytometers in biomedical applications.
Panasonic's new laser diodes offer a single-chip solution, eliminating the need for multiple components, with both red and infrared lasers integrated into a flat, three-contact package. Delivering stable power output even at high temperatures, these new dual-wavelength laser diodes are approximately 20% to 30% more efficient than conventional laser diodes. Furthermore, the devices also feature high precision in laser beam spacing, providing greater design flexibility.
The LNCT22PK01WW and LNCT28PF01WW are devices manufactured using chemical organometallic vapor deposition (MOCVD) processes with dual wavelength devices manufactured at 660nm and 780nm that have a multi-quantum well structure that has been adapted to fit a compact and lightweight encapsulation.
The main features of the LNCT22PK01WW / LNCT28PF01WW are: dual wavelengths of 661/661nm (typical) and 785/783nm (typical); output power of 280/300 mW (pulse) for red and 380/380mW (pulse) for infrared; and an operating temperature range of -10 to +85 °C for both devices.
