Photonic Products has expanded its range of laser diode modules with the near-infrared PM606-P photon laser module, which uses the 705nm semiconductor laser diode from Opnext.
The PM606-P is designed for use in low-level laser therapy, biometric sensors and fluorescence sensing.
It can be used for energy-efficient, low-power optical measurement applications.
The laser module has an optical output power of 25mW with power stability of <5 per cent at a wavelength of 705nm, low-operating current of 75mA, low-operating voltage range of 2.7 to 6V, beam size of 4 x 2mm and beam divergence of 0.6 x 0.3mrad.
The operating temperature range is -10C to 60C.
It consists of an aluminium housing, Opnext 705nm laser diode, drive circuit and collimating lens.
The lens may be adjusted to produce either a collimated beam or focused spot.
The standard lens may be replaced by other optical systems such as line generators.
The module can be supplied in various colours to assist in wavelength or power identification and has a 25mm mounting flange.
Electrical connections are made via external flying leads.
