BPC80C-9xx-01

The Bookham BPC80C-9xx-01 30% fill factor laser diode bar on passive cooler series has been designed to provide the increased brightness and reliability required for collimated pumping of next generation solid-state lasers and direct applications. The proprietary E2 front mirror passivation process, developed at our Zurich site, prevents Catastrophic Optical Damage (COD) to the laser diode facet even at extremely high output powers. The laser diode bars of BPC80C-9xx-01 are mounted on an expansion matched CuW submount onto a Cu block package providing very high reliability in CW and pulsed (1-Hz type) applications.
