Where to Buy OEM Laser Modules

SHIPS TODAY: AeroDIODE offers fiber-coupled laser diodes turn-key modules between 520 nm and 1650 nm as stock items or associated with a CW or pulsed laser diode driver. They are compatible with our high speed nanosecond pulsed drivers with special temporal pulse shaping capability or high power CW drivers with air cooling for the multimode high power laser diode versions. The single mode laser diodes (either Fabry–Pérot laser diode or DFB laser diode) can reach high power in nanosecond pulse regime up to 500 mW. These OEM diode & driver solutions are optimized for single-shot to CW performances with pulse durations down to 1 ns. The laser diode precision pulses are generated internally by an on-board pulse generator, or on demand from an external TTL signal. Many multimode versions are available with CW emission up to 300 W in a 200-µm core multimode fiber or up to 250 W in a 135-µm core fiber or 160 W in a 105 µm core fiber.

Our 1030-nm industry-grade femtosecond oscillator is not a usual laser – this is the superhero of laser oscillators. It has special superpowers that make it stand out from the crowd. Super-short yet ultra-fast. Small in size but very stable and robust. The earth may tremble but the laser will operate as usual. Same power, same pulse and no degradation over many years.

This oscillator was specifically developed to be the rock-solid heart of the Fluence Jasper amplified system. It is build upon the Fluence truly-all-fibre technology, with no degradable components inside. The oscillator is equipped with a special self-starting solution ensuring the laser mode-locks every time. This feature together with the low size and power consumption makes the Fluence oscillator perfect for OEM applications.
