Edge emitting lasers ready to ship

Mouser Electronics is now shipping Osram’s new PLPM7 Vegalas power multi-die edge-emitting laser. It is designed to deliver industry-leading blue laser efficiency for high-brightness entertainment, industrial, special projection and lighting applications. 

 

The device delivers 455nm blue laser performance with a 42 W optical output and 45 per cent wall-plug efficiency, while simplifying thermal management and system cost through a robust, easy-to-mount multi-die design.  

 

The laser features multimode EEL chip technology with an ultra-small footprint (30.0 by 25.5 by 4.19 mm) and beam collimation, suiting it to high-power applications that require phosphor conversion or direct-emitting blue laser light, such as high-brightness projection and industrial/special lighting applications. 

 

With ams Osram’s proven quality and a 20,000-plus hour lifetime, the laser delivers a reliable, best-in-class, easy-to-use, efficient and robust optical solution.
