Product Specifications
975nm Multi-Mode Laser Diodes
400μm emitter (8W-10W)
Description:
High brightness, high quality, and high reliability are the foundation of our multi mode product
line. Axcel’s 975nm multi mode laser diodes are available with up to 10W of continuous
output power from a 400μm
single emitter chip. Axcel’s trademark laser chip design creates
un-measurable degradation and long lifetimes that make our chips among the most reliable in
the industry today. Our 975nm multi mode line serves a broad range of applications including
solid state pumping, material processing, medical, and defense.
These diodes are available on an industry standard C-mount . More product options are
available upon request. Please view our website for mechanical drawings of all of our sub-
mounts.

ESD Caution

Safety
Caution: Laser light emitted from any diode laser is invisible and may be harmful
to the human eye. Avoid looking directly into the diode laser aperture when the
device is in operation.
Note:
The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard.
Operating Considerations
Always handle diode lasers with extreme care to prevent electrostatic discharge,
the primary cause of unexpected diode failure. You can prevent ESD by always
wearing wrist straps, grounding all applicable work surfaces, and following
extremely rigorous anti-static techniques when handling diode lasers.
Operating the diode laser outside of its maximum ratings may cause device failure or a safety hazard. Power supplies used with the component must be employed such
that the maximum peak optical power cannot be exceeded. CW diode lasers may be damaged by excessive drive current or switching transients. When using power
supplies, the diode laser should be connected with the main power on and the output voltage at zero. The current should be increased slowly while monitoring the diode
laser output power and the drive current. Device degradation accelerates with increased temperature, and therefore careful attention to minimize the case temperature
is advised. A proper heat-sink for the diode laser on a thermal radiator will greatly enhance laser life.
Power Output Danger Label
WARNING! Invisible laser radiation is emitted from devices as shown below
21 CFR 1040.10 Compliance
Because of the small size of these devices, each of the labels
shown are attached to the individual shipping container. They
are illustrated here to comply with 21 CFR 1040.10 as applica-
ble under the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of
1968.
