Data Sheet
Preliminary
80W 9xxnm 30% Fill Factor High Power Laser Diode
Bar on Passive Cu Block Cooler
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 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.
Features:
• Mounted 10mm x 2.4mm laser diode bar
• Passive 1" x 1" Cu block cooler
• 30% fill factor (150µm emitter / 500µm pitch)
• 80W operating power
• Highly reliable single quantum well MBE structure
• Telecom-grade AuSn mounting technology
• Standard wavelengths at 915nm, 940nm, and 980nm
(others available on request)
• RoHS compliant
Applications:
• Collimated solid-state laser pumping
• Direct applications such as material processing
• Printing
• Medical
