An SLD diode (Superluminescent diode) is an optimal solution for OCT (Optical coherence tomography), FOG (fiber optic gyroscope) and any other R&D application requiring low coherence and high brightness. When ordering one of the 4 optional turn-key SLED diode driver solutions (as an SLD diode + driver kit), the SLED superluminescent diode is mounted and calibrated by AeroDIODE production teams and all parameters are set to reach the best performance in low noise CW and/or pulsed regime.

SLD diode (Superluminescent light emitting diode) Key Features:
These SLD diodes combined with our high end flexible pulsed laser diode driver with TEC controller are an ideal universal tool for applications such as OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography), FOG (Fiber Optic Gyroscope) or all other R&D setup requiring low coherence and high brightness at 1310 nm or 1550 nm.
Depending on your country, AeroDIODE will ship your order from Europe or from the USA.
