The ”Slim“ Line - 1064nm PLANEX Laser

26 Feb 2018

Redfern Integrated Optics, Inc. (RIO) announced its first PLANEX laser emitting

the classic YAG wavelength of 1064nm, featuring narrow line width (15kHz), low

noise and high coherence length. Its compact housing and standardised electrical

connections make it an easy drop-in replacement for existing designs. RIO lasers

are available from LASER COMPONENTS in Germany and in the UK.

RIO’s proprietary PLANEX technology is a combination of a gain chip and a planar

light wave circuit (PLC) with an integrated Bragg grating. The combination of

these components forms a cavity with significant benefits: up to 20mW output

power, very low RIN, low phase noise as well as very low wavelength sensitivity to

bias current and temperature.

External Cavity Lasers are the best choice for all applications that require narrowband

beams with narrow line widths - such as communications, LIDAR, metrology

and research.
