The AIM-traded firm said the new laser diodes, from Quantum Semiconductor International, offered a higher wavelength of 940 nanometers, were available with typical milliwatt output power of 50mW or 200mW, and included a built-in photodiode for laser diode monitoring.
It said the 940nm, 50mW laser diode, QL94J6S"X", was ideally suited for integration into industrial laser modules.
In addition, 3D sensing, gesture recognition and targeting applications, among others, would benefit from the “compact” 5.6mm diode with a built-in photodiode to continually monitor performance.
The QL94R6S"X" 940nm laser diode has an output power of 200mW.
ProPhotonix said the higher power level made the IR laser diode “ideally suited” to virtual reality, augmented reality and depth sensing applications.
Both diodes were available in three different pin configurations, providing six new laser diode options, to ease integration for specific application requirements.
Both were rated at operating temperatures up to 60⁰C.
“We are pleased to offer these new Infrared laser diodes from QSI,” said ProPhotonix managing director Jeremy Lane.
“They address many high growth opportunities and allow us to further extend our broad range of competitive, high-quality laser diode solutions to our customers.”
