Press Release Summary:
Housed in hermetically sealed TO 5.6 mm package, ONDAX 405 nm Blue-Violet Laser features wavelength stability of less than 0.015 nm/°C. Wavelength stabilization is achieved by optical feedback using ONDAX Volume Holographic Grating PowerLocker, which ensures stable single longitudinal mode operation. With wavelength locked to less than ±1 nm and coherence length of ~0.6 m, miniature laser is suited for Raman spectroscopy, flow cytometry, and metrology/interferometry.

ONDAX 405nm Wavelength Stabilised Laser Diodes from Photonic Products
Hatfield Broad Oak, UK, Wednesday, September 16, 2009 -- Photonic Products has launched a new range of 405nm wavelength stabilised laser diodes from ONDAX for applications which include Raman spectroscopy, flow cytometry and metrology / interferometry.
The ONDAX 405nm blue-violet wavelength stabilised laser is a miniature laser in a standard TO 5.6mm package. The wavelength stabilisation is achieved by optical feedback using the ONDAX Volume Holographic Grating (VHG) PowerLocker which ensures a stable single longitudinal mode operation.
Features include wavelength stability (<0.015nm/ºC), single longitudinal mode, compact size (standard 5.6 mm TO package), wavelength locked to <±1nm, coherence length (~0.6m) and it is hermetically sealed. The power locked laser has a very low temperature dependence and precise centre wavelength over the locked region which enhances its performance.
The ONDAX range of 405nm blue-violet wavelength stabilised lasers is also ideal for use in data storage, embossed holograms, CD mastering, diffraction grating fabrication, confocal microscopy, particle counting, fluorescence, non-destructive testing, microlithography and high speed printing.
All ONDAX wavelength stabilised laser diodes are low cost, hermetically sealed, miniature lasers in a standard TO package.
ONDAX lasers are available from Photonic Products in standard wavelengths of 403, 405, 407, 640, 658, 685, and 785nm. They offer low temperature dependence (<0.03nm/ºC), single mode narrow linewidth, compact size (5.6mm and 9mm standard TO package) and are wavelength locked to <±1nm.
Custom wavelengths, packaging and accessories are available upon request.

About ONDAX, Inc.
ONDAX was founded in 2000 by a team from the California Institute of Technology and the University of Bonn.
ONDAX is the world's leader in Volume Holographic Gratings, having built a manufacturing infrastructure for high volume production.
The Volume Holographic Grating has many advantages over thin film and fiber Bragg gratings. The narrow-band filtering capability in reflection mode (0.1 nm) over a large aperture (25 mm) is unique. This unique filtering technology is used in high-power laser diodes wavelength stabilization, beam combining, astronomy multi-line filtering, and spectral imaging.
