>> The Basics of Quantum Wells Lasers Regular double heterostructure (DH) semiconductor lasers have an active region of 0.1 to 0.2um thick. Since the 1980s, lasers with very thin active regions, quantum well lasers, were... Read more »
Most semiconductor lasers have cleaved facets that form the optical cavity. The facets are perpendicular to the surface of the wafer and light is emitted parallel to the surface of the wafer. But for many applications requiring... Read more »
Buy Fiber Optic Light Source from us. Laser Diodes (LD) are very commonly used in fiber optic communication systems and their characteristics are of primary importance. So here we give a summary of LD’s characteristics. Laser Diode... Read more »
What is VCSEL? VCSEL stands for Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser. It is a type of semiconductor laser diode with laser beam emission perpendicular from the top surface, contrary to conventional edge-emitting semiconductor lasers which... Read more »
Buy Fiber Optic Light Source Here Optical signals begin at the source with lasers or LEDs transmitting light at the exact wavelength at which the fiber will carry it most efficiently. The source must be... Read more »
VCSEL lasers have the economic advantage over any other diode lasers. This short explanation tells you why. A typical VCSEL consists of two oppositely-doped Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBR) with a cavity layer between. In the center... Read more »
