785 Single-Frequency DBR Laser Diode
Description
The 785 nm Distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) Laser Diode is a high-performance edge-emitting laser designed for applications requiring a single-frequency, stable, and reliable optical source. Built using Photodigm’s advanced monolithic GaAs laser technology, this diode provides a single spatial mode beam and features passivated facets for enhanced reliability.
With a nominal wavelength of 785 nm (±0.6 nm) and a high side mode suppression ratio (SMSR), this DBR laser diode is optimized for Raman spectroscopy, precision metrology, and scientific research applications. It offers low noise operation, excellent wavelength stability, and precise tuning capabilities, making it a preferred choice for demanding optical systems.
Available in multiple power configurations, the low-power version operates within a range of 40–80 mW, while the high-power variant delivers 80–180 mW. With its robust design, hermetically sealed package options, and support for add-ons such as Mode-Hop Free (MHF) and Virtual Point Source (VPS) lenses, the 785 nm DBR laser diode ensures reliable performance across a wide temperature range.
