LQC1550-05E In Stock

The LQC1550-05E by Newport is a Laser Diode Module engineered to cater to a diverse range of applications in fields such as biomedicine, industrial processes, and analytical research. This versatile module finds utility in applications encompassing issue fluorescence, flow cytometry, marking, machine vision, interferometry, and spectroscopy. Distinguished by its self-contained design, the LQC1550-05E boasts exceptional optical precision coupled with an ultra-stable control mechanism for temperature, wavelength, and output power. This level of control ensures optimal performance and reliability.

A noteworthy aspect of the LQC1550-05E is its cost-efficiency, stemming from the incorporation of both collimating optics and the diode itself within a singular, compact enclosure. This strategic design choice simplifies setup and mitigates the need for additional components, thus streamlining operational complexity. The LQC1550-05E functions as a 1550 nm Fabry-Perot (FP) device, yielding a continuous wave (CW) elliptical beam with an output power of 5 mW. It is pertinent to note that seamless operation requires a compatible 5 VDC external power supply. This power supply not only ensures the laser's operation but also provides key features such as a laser active indicator, delayed start-up capability, a key enable switch, and an interlock input for enhanced safety and control. Moreover, seamless integration with a PID temperature controller and a precision current source enhances its adaptability and operational efficacy.
