The
RPMC-2615-1540 laser diode is a high power,
multimode, visible red laser diode. TheseinAlGaP broad-area,
gain-guided lasers are produced using MOCVD growth
which offers high efficiency, low threshold current,
and excellent reliability. The low 635nm wavelength
of these devicesis over five times more visible to
the eye than standard 670nm laser diodes. Because
these devices are more sensitive to operating temperature
than longer wavelength devicesitis essential that
the lasers be operated with adequate cooling. An operating
temperature of 15 degrees Cis recommended; the efficiency
and lifetime of the devices will beimproved with even
lower operating temperatures.
These devices
are availablein a High-Heat-Load package which has
anintegral thermoelectric cooler, thermistor, and
monitor photodiode. They are also available on an
open heatsink package, as well as other package options;
