808nm 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 808nm
multi mode laser diodes are available with up to 10W of continuous output power from a 400µm sin-
gle 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 multi mode line serves
a broad range of applications including medical, graphics, solid state pumping, optical data storage,
imaging recording, spectral analysis, defense, and telecommunication.
Packaging options include industry standard C-mounts. More product options are available upon re-
quest. Please view our website for mechanical drawings of all of our sub-mount, mount, and module
packages.

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.
