Violet Diode Lasers offer elliptical and circular beams.

Press Release Summary:



Series 56 ICS Violet Laser Systems output 408 or 440 nm with power up to 24 or 3.5 mW, respectively. Beams can be modulated up to 5 MHz. Laser temperature is controlled by thermoelectric cooler, which stabilizes output power, minimizing wavelength drift. Suited for laser-induced fluorescence and metrology applications, fully self-contained systems are CE and CDRH certified and require 8 Vdc to operate.



Original Press Release:


New High-Power Violet Diode Laser


Longmont, CO - Melles Griot introduces the new 56 ICS series of high-power, violet, diode laser systems. Output is available at 408 nm or 440 nm, with power up to 24 mW at 408 nm and 3.5 mW at 440 nm. Models are available with elliptical (1.0 x 2.8 mm) or circular (1.0 mm and 3.0 mm) beams and can be modulated at rates up to 5 MHz. 56 ICS-series violet lasers are ideal for use in
laser-induced fluorescence and metrology applications, as well as in other applications where compact size, low noise, and constant power are required.

Laser temperature is controlled by a thermoelectric cooler, which stabilizes output power, minimizes wavelength drift, and increases overall operating life. Each system undergoes extensive thermal testing to insure optical and power stability over the full operating temperature range.

56 ICS-series violet laser systems are CE and CDRH certified and fully self-contained, and they require only 8 Vdc to operate. Individual units are fully characterized and are supplied with supporting test data to verify actual performance.

Melles Griot manufactures diode laser systems in a variety of configurations with output ranging from 405 nm to 1.55 µm. In addition, they manufacture an extensive line of gas and DPSS laser products with output wavelengths ranging from 325 nm to 1.52 µm and output power up to 3 W. Customized systems are also
available.

Melles Griot is a leading global supplier of photonics products including optical components and systems, lasers, motion-
control systems, laser measurement instrumentation, opto-mechanical hardware, and vibration isolated optical tables and
workstations. The company has manufacturing and distribution activities in 41 countries, serving industries as diverse
as semiconductor, biomedical, metrology, and telecommunications. Melles Griot is a Barloworld Scientific company.
