Components for 3D LiDAR
The LASER COMPONENTS group is among few manufacturers in the market, that produce both emitters and detectors for LiDAR and other Time-of-Flight applications. Pulsed Laser Diodes (PLDs) from Canada and Silicon Avalanche Photodiodes from its facility in Chandler, AZ are at the forefront in the race for shorter pulse lasers, higher performance, and more sensitive detectors. Continuing investment in multi-junction technology with trenched chip design led to the high-efficiency PLDs on display at SPIE Photonics West.

Complex, Reliable Laser Optics  
The laser optics business unit in Germany further expanded production capacities and measurement capabilities to provide more flexibility and shorter delivery times for small quantities and series production. Using PVD, IAD and IBS coating technologies, experts are able to realize complex optics such as thin-film polarizers with special functions or polychromatic beam splitters that can simultaneously direct three or more wavelengths. A newly installed cavity ring-down measuring station is able to measure reflectivity values well above 99.95 % and offer customers proof that these specifications have been met.

3D Radial Measurement
FLEXPOINT^® Radial, the latest addition to an ever-growing range of laser modules, was specifically developed for a laser triangulation system that provides a detailed look inside pipes and pipelines. The laser module generates a 360° line with a consistently high homogeneity without any moving parts. Scanners equipped with this robust module can detect irregularities down to 50 µm.

Select Suppliers
In addition to these proprietary products, the portfolio displayed at the LASER COMPONENTS booth also includes products from international high-end suppliers that breathe the same spirit of innovation and customization with Spatial Light Modulators from HOLOEYE, CODIXX’ colorPol^® polarizers, and laser pulse drivers from PicoLas as well as UV LEDs from Bolb and Photon Wave or Micro-Hybrid’s IR emitters.
