Wavelength Stabilised Laser Diodes

Photonic Products, the UK opto-electronics device manufacturer and laser diode specialist, has been appointed by Ondax as authorised European distributor for its range of wavelength stabilised laser diodes which are low cost, miniature lasers in a standard TO package. Stabilisation is achieved using the Ondax Volume Holographic Grating (VHG) PowerLocker(tm). The PowerLocker(tm) increases the spectral brightness of laser diodes, ensuring a precise centre wavelength over the locked region and improving temperature stability and yield, which enhances performance and enables many applications including storage, metrology, bio-instrumentation, analytical instrumentation, sensing, flow cytometry and graphic arts.

We are delighted to supplement our current range of high performance laser diodes from Sanyo, Sony and Opnext with these specialised PowerLocker(tm) diodes from Ondax. We have many customers who will benefit from the stability of these devices , said Tony Wright, Director of Sales for Photonic Products.

Ondax’s PowerLocker(tm) is ideal for increasing the spectral brightness of laser diodes and locking their emission wavelength. The short external cavity enabled by the PowerLocker(tm) provides better mode selection than systems based on Littrow and Littman cavities.

The stabilised laser has a single-mode, narrow linewidth of
Custom wavelengths are available upon request.
