Introduction

For decades, Superlum has been manufacturing high quality superluminescent diodes (SLDs).

Our main products are free space SLD modules and SM and PM fiber pigtailed SLD modules based on a single transverse mode SLD emitters, as well as multimode fiber pigtailed SLD modules in different spectral bands from 650 nm to 1620 nm, including extremely powerful (up to 100 mW) and broadband (up to 100 nm FWHM) models.

Custom performance characteristics and different package types are available upon request. For customers' convenience, modules can be delivered with an appropriate current and temperatrure controller.

Temperature-Controlled (Cooled) Single-Mode Free-Space and Fiber-Pigtailed SLDs

Our temperature-controlled (cooled) single mode SLDs are listed in the table below, grouped by spectral band. For more information about a particular device, refer to its datasheet (click on the PDF icon in the last column).
