QD Laser, the Institute for Nano Quantum Information Electronics, the University of Tokyo, and Fujitsu today announced the successful development of a high-power 532 nm-wavelength compact green laser module with high efficiency and high-speed modulation capability. This module shows promise for a wide range of applications such as with florescence microscopes or spectral analysis in life science or biomedical applications, and precise measurements as well as nondestructive inspections in industry. Furthermore, it is also expected to apply to future ultra-compact projectors in consumer electronics.
A prototype of the green laser module will be exhibited at SPIE Photonics West (Booth#5307), held from January 24, 2012, in San Francisco. QD Laser is planning to start sample shipments of the new product, QLD0593-P50, with > 50 mW output power from the 2nd quarter of 2012 and to start mass-production from the 4th quarter.
