Broadband SLED Lasers

Box Optronics Broadband SLED Lasers are Superluminescent diodes (SLDs) that emit light with a short coherence length and high brightness, making them ideal for applications such as spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), fiber optic gyroscopes (FOG), optical sensing, Biomedical imaging systems. Box Optronics offers butterfly-packaged SLDs in NIR wavelength ranges, as well as versions optimized for use in SD-OCT systems. SLD benchtop sources are also available, which are an all-in-one solution that integrates the SLD, controller, and TEC in one unit with either a single mode or polarization-maintaining FC/APC output.

Box Optronics provide many options in Broadband SLED Lasers, we have 830nm 3mW 5mW Superluminescent diodes (SLDs), 850nm 5mW 7mW SLED laser diode with SM 5/125 Corning HI780 or equivalent or PM fiber, 1310nm 0.2mW 0.3mW 1mW 2mW Broadband SLDs and 1550nm 1mW 10mW, we can also customize the wavelength and output power according to your requirement.

Each  Broadband SLED Lasers device is built into a 14-pin butterfly package with an integrated thermoelectric cooler (TEC) and thermistor to ensure output stability. The output is coupled into an SM or PM fiber terminated with a 2.0 mm narrow key FC/APC connector. Please note that optical feedback can diminish the output power or damage the SLD. We do not recommend using these SLDs with components that are prone to back reflections, such as FC/PC connectors.
