1. Wavelength stabilization improves laser diode efficiency and brightness.

Author

*INDUSTRIAL lasers, *SEMICONDUCTOR diodes, *SPECTRAL sensitivity, *OPTICAL fiber communication, *WAVELENGTHS
Abstract

The article discusses the capability of wavelength stabilization technology for high-power laser diodes to bring an efficient spectral width that is locked over a wide temperature range. It notes that laser diodes are by a wide margin unsurpassed as efficient sources of radiation and have carved out dominant positions in many laser applications. The author points out that laser applications such as fiber-optic telecommunications and optical data storage would not exist at all without the diode.

Abstract

The article offers information on the 2 micrometer fiber laser based on thulium(Tm)-doped silica fibers. This technology, being a member of the kilowatt-class lasers, has the capability of functioning at an "eye-safe" wavelength of 790 nanometer and is compatible with most of fiber lasers developed for use at 1 micrometer.
