Intense's new guide provides insights, technology tips and reference materials for specifying custom lasers

Intense has released its Guide to Custom High-Power Laser Diodes. Part of the company's How to Select series, the guide is designed to help product designers understand the costs and technical issues involved in customising diodes. The guide provides insights, technology tips and reference materials for specifying custom lasers, including a discussion of spatial characteristics and the advantages of active versus passive temperature control.

Also included is a white paper on quantum well intermixing (QWI) technology and its ability to deliver superior brightness, longer lifetimes and increased reliability.

'Finding the right laser diode for a specific application can be a challenging and complicated process', according to Chris Baker, Group VP Sales and Marketing at Intense.

'The project may require custom or specialised wafer growth, certain spectral characteristics, packaging, budgetary and environmental considerations'.

'This is especially true when a buyer has requirements that fall outside of standard wavelengths and power ranges'.

'We developed the Guide to Customer High Power Laser Diodes to help designers navigate the complex buying process'.

'This guide will help them make informed, intelligent decisions and choose the right product for their application'.
