915nm 50mW 5μm Aperture TO-5 Laser Diode Without Cap

Description

915
nm 50mW 5μm Aperture TO-5 Laser Diode
Description:
This is an 915nm single mode laser diode, which can output 50mW kink free optical power from its 5μm aperture.
There is no AR coating on front facet. There is only one 0.1nm thick protection layer on front facet. So it is very convenient for customers to coat their own AR Coating.
It was p-up bonded on TO-5 (9mm TO can), which was made in the USA. It came to us with a lot of other electronic/opto-electronic related surplus. We have 4 such lasers in stock. The lasers are brand new not used.

By Bidding, you must agree and accept:
·
You are over 18 years old and understand the dangers and risks of laser use, and will use this component responsibly.
·
You will use this component in a legal, safe manner to ensure audience and personnel safety.
·
You have a working knowledge of laser diodes. You understand ESD, and the static sensitivity of this component.
·
Laser beam is harmful for eyes during process. Please avoid any directly see on the aperture. Never shine laser beam on human or animals.
·
You accept these diodes as electronic components for integrating them into a system designed by yourself. You relieve the SELLER, and E-bay from any and all LIABILITY from damage or injury that may arise from use of this laser.
If you are not serious, please do not place a bid.
Return policy:
·
We will test the lasers before shipment; buyer should contact us as soon as he find it is defective;
·
Refund request should be made within 14 days buyer receives the product;
·
Replacement request should be made within 30 days buyer receives the product;
·
Since this is a Do-It-Yourself laser diode, we only refund if the product arrive to be defective; so please use it gently and properly when you assemble your device; you also need to send back in original shape to get refund/replacement; we won't refund or replace if the laser was damaged by buyers;
Some tips for operating laser diode:
·
Please use a power supply with stable output. Transient current spikes should be avoided.
·
Please always connect the pins correctly.
·
Heat sink with good thermal dissipation is required for holding the laser otherwise the laser will be burned.
·
Please use eye protection when you operate the laser.
·
It is better to wear an antistatic wrist band.
·
You should always start with current well below the diodes maximum (about 0.1 amps in this case).
