Powerful and Flexible Applications: Fiber Optics to Optical Coherence Tomography

The combination of key features of EXALOS’ SLED products provides technical advantages over Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and Laser Diodes in many applications in the following markets, Fiber Optic Test Equipment, Fiber Optics Sensors, Fiber Optic Gyroscopes and Medical Imaging. These key features include:

» Broad range of wavelength: 700 to 1700nm
» Broadband Optical Emissions: FWHM up to 190nm
» High Optical Power: up to 30mW (from the fiber)
» Low Spectral Modulation (Ripple)
» Short Coherence Lengths (Low Temporal Coherence)
» High Spatial Coherence

Because of the SLEDs broadband optical emissions and low temporal coherence, EXALOS's SLEDs are especially advantageous in applications where interferences causes speckle or ghost images. Additionally, SLEDs are much more powerful than standard LEDs and therefore they are particularly advantageous for applications requiring high power density.

EXALOS's SLEDs powerful functionality and flexibility at the component level enables customers to integrate EXALOS products into their applications without difficulty, making them perfect for a broad range of demanding applications. The bottom line: lower development cost, higher product quality, and reduced time-to-market.

EXALOS has developed a number of SLEDs for specific applications.
