Buying Broad Area Laser Diodes
Broad area laser diodes, also called high-brightness or broad-stripe diodes, have an elongated emitter for higher output power, typically a couple of watts. They are used for applications such as pumping solid-state lasers, material processing, and direct diode laser systems.
