Product Specifications
830nm Single-Mode Laser Diodes (50-150mW)
Description:
High brightness, high quality, and high reliability are the foundation of our single mode prod-
uct line. Axcel’s 830nm single mode laser diodes are available with up to 150mW of continu-
ous output power from a single emitter chip. Axcel’s trademark laser chip design offers un-
measurable degradation and long lifetimes that make our chips among the most reliable in
the industry today. Our 830nm single mode line serves a broad range of applications includ-
ing Sanyo replacement, gaming, printing, laser ranging, spectral analysis, and graphics.
Packaging options include a 9mm TO-can or chip on sub-mount package. More options are
available upon request. Please view our website for mechanical drawings of all of our sub-
mounts.

ESD Caution
Caution: Laser light emitted from any diode laser is invisible and may be harmful to the human
eye. Avoid looking directly into the diode laser aperture when the device is in operation.
Note:
The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
Operating Considerations
Always handle diode lasers with extreme care to prevent electrostatic discharge, the primary
cause of unexpected diode failure. You can prevent ESD by always wearing wrist straps,
grounding all applicable work surfaces, and following extremely rigorous anti-static
Operating the diode laser outside of its maximum ratings may cause device failure or a safety hazard. Power supplies used with the component must be employed such that the maximum peak
optical power cannot be exceeded. CW diode lasers may be damaged by excessive drive current or switching transients. When using power supplies, the diode laser should be connected with
the main power on and the output voltage at zero. The current should be increased slowly while monitoring the diode laser output power and the drive current. Device degradation accelerates
with increased temperature, and therefore careful attention to minimize the case temperature is advised. A proper heat-sink for the diode laser on a thermal radiator will greatly enhance
laser life.
Power Output Danger Label
WARNING! Invisible laser radiation is emitted from devices as shown below
21 CFR 1040.10 Compliance
Because of the small size of these devices, each of
the labels shown are attached to the individual
shipping container. They are illustrated here to
comply with 21 CFR 1040.10 as applicable under
the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of
1968.
