Oclaro has the technology, packaging and manufacturing expertise to continually drive innovations in power and efficiency for our existing product families, said Bernd Meyer, Leader, High Power Laser Business for Oclaro, Inc. We are now expanding the capabilities of our OPC family by delivering higher performance across a wider wavelength range and brightness — and we’ve also developed a new family member for the BPM/BLM mini-cooler series that represents the smallest footprint and highest CW power level of any competitive solution.
About the BLM9xx/10xx
The new BLM family member represents the industry’s smallest footprint and highest power conductively cooled product. This laser diode delivers up to 120W at the 910 to 1070nm wavelength range and replaces micro-channel coolers in horizontal configurations for DPSS pumping and direct diode applications. To ensure easy integration, the new BLM9xx/10xx replaces soldering or wire bonding with mechanical electrical connection and mounting.
About the OPC880
The new OPC family member is a 60W CW low filling factor bar at the 875nm to 890nm wavelength range and will be used in Oclaro’s own Prosario™ collimated modules, fiber coupled packages and will also be available as a passively cooled bar to Oclaro customers. By expanding the wavelength range of the existing OPC family, the new OPC880 enables Oclaro to enter the new and growing 880nm neodymium-YAG and neodymium-vanadate pumping market.
