PRESS RELEASE

SemiNex Corporation is proud to announce its High Power Multi-chip Fiber Coupled Diode Laser. The device is available in 1450nm, 1470nm, 1532nm, and 1550nm, or can be specially made for any customer specified wavelength between 1300nm and 1600nm.

* 20W CW Optical Power

* 1450, 1470, 1532 and 1550 nm

* 375um / 0.22 NA bundled fiber

* 123mm X 80mm Footprint

* 50% W/A Slope Efficiency

* Red aiming beam available

* Monitor Photodiode available

* In-stock availability

The multi-chip fiber-coupled laser module can be purchased in modular form with three to seven diodes in one package. The module can provide up to 20 watts of power with a conversion efficiency of 30% watts/amp. The diodes outputs are combined into a fiber bundle equipped with an optional 650 nm aiming beam. A monitor photodiode is available also upon request. This device is ideal for medical laser equipment applications as well as DPSS pump lasers, LIDAR, and defense applications.

The SemiNex multi-chip fiber coupled diode laser module has a high slope efficiency of 50% which lowers the standard electrical and cooling system requirements, allowing designers to engineer smaller laser systems at reduced costs. The multi-chip module has up to 20-watts of power and has high-heat-load capacities, allowing for longer time in use even under elevated heat-sink temperatures.

SemiNex lasers are used for high-volume applications in the medical, military, and free space optical communications industries.
