Laser diodes boast reliable brightness
High-beam-quality single-mode 830nm single-emitter laser diode produces up to 200mW of output power
New from Intense, the HPD6020 is a high-beam-quality single-mode 830nm single-emitter laser diode that produces up to 200mW of output power. The new lasers are based on the company's patented quantum well intermixing technology, which increases the brightness and reliability of laser diodes while avoiding the usual problems associated with catastrophic optical mirror damage.

Laser diode research contract signed
The Pulsar programme aims to improve both the reliability and efficiency of laser diode stacks at the 808nm wavelength
Therefore, the HPD6020 provides the increased power, efficiency and optical quality needed for new and demanding defence, medical, and print and imaging applications.
A member of the HPD Series 6000 high-power single-mode laser diode product family, the HPD6020 is available in wavelengths of 830nm +/-5nm.
Reliability is outstanding, with data in excess of 11 million operating hours.
The lasers are available in a selection of standard packages, including 5.6mm, 9mm and C-mount.
Monitor photodiodes are optionally available on the 5.6 and 9mm packages.
Other wavelengths in the HPD Series 6000 family are available on request.
'The HPD6020 is the first in a series of new, high power products resulting from the recent merger of Intense and High Power Devices (now Intense-HPD)', says Scott Christie, CEO of Intense.
'Combining the strengths of Intense's patented quantum well intermixing technology and Intense-HPD's lean, high volume manufacturing processes, enables us to deliver innovative laser products with unrivalled levels of power, brightness and reliability'.
The strength of the HPD6020 high power diode lasers is based on Intense's patented quantum well intermixing technology.
This process increases the quantum well bandgap of a semiconductor laser in a controlled and highly precise manner, such that active and passive sections can be created in the same laser cavity.
Passive nonabsorbing mirrors are created at the facet regions of the cavities to avoid catastrophic optical mirror damage, a problem frequently encountered in typical laser devices.
The end result is a high performance laser that can operate at high optical power and brightness with exceptional reliability.
The HPD6020 830nm laser diodes are available for immediate delivery.
Prices start at US $200.
Custom wavelengths are available for OEM applications.
