Laser Cooling Demonstrated for TO-Can Packages
Nextreme Thermal Solutions has demonstrated the cooling of a laser diode in a TO-8 package using an embedded thin-film thermoelectric OptoCooler HV14 module. Cooling the laser improves the output performance and reliability of the device. To illustrate the benefits for cooling a laser with an embedded thermoelectric cooler (TEC), Nextreme mounted a laser diode on the active … [Read more...]
