Osram has introduced a laser diode for industrial lidar. SPL TL90AT03 emits 905nm infra-red and has been developed for short laser pulses – between 5 and 100ns – maximum duty cycle is 0.1%. Optical output is 65W from a 110µm aperture (20A 100μs 1kHz) – said to be an efficiency of 34%. There are three emitters ...
