Illuminator for multi-wavelength emission
Pulsed laser diode illuminator
Up to 8 mJ with 4 wavelengths - 6 kHz
That illuminator can generate pulses from 80 to 130 ns from up to four independent diodes. Each diode can emit at a given wavelength, 1 to 2 mJ depending on the pulse width. That leads to an overall emission of maximum 8 mJ. It can support a pulse repetition rate of up to 6 kHz (higher frequencies, up to 10 kHz, can be used in burst mode of 20 pulses). A maximum average optical power of 24 W can be generated if used in combination with a suitable cooling system.
That unique high-tech module integrates up to 4 diodes and a driver board into a closed protecting housing and will then be particularly suitable for high average power generation at one wavelength or for multi-wavelength emission. Components of that module have been selected to provide the highest possible efficiency, leading to a low power consumption. Additional equipment required to operate that illuminator, such as external low and high voltage power supplies, function generator and thermoelectric assembly for active cooling, can be provided as an option.

That upmarket illuminator integrates up to 4 diodes and a driver board whose combination allows generation of nanosecond pulses. Laser diode design and manufacturing benefit from the sound know-how of Quantel’s Diode Department in hard solder technology already developed for QCW laser diodes to ensure efficiency and reliability. With its proprietary technology for nanosecond pulsed laser diode illuminators, Quantel offers unique laser sources that are compact, low-cost and highly efficient. While high output average power (typically higher than 2 W) will require a suitable cooling system, low output average powers make these laser diode sources ideal for integration into portable and even hand held devices. Typical applications are photoacoustics, NIR spectroscopy, ultrasound generation, 3D flash LIDAR or time of flight measurements.
