Data Sheet
1
The Bookham B60C-10xx-01 50% fill factor laser diode bar has
been designed to provide the increased brightness and
reliability required for direct diode applications and as
replacement for Nd:YAG lasers. 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.
