    Are there any rules of thumb for pulsed performance of CW diodes?

    I have a driver that can output 50A 5ns 20kHz pulses and want to use it to power a blue diode. However, I have a few questions which are hopefully cheaper and faster to ask rather than determine experimentally! 1. Is there any danger of facet damage from these short pulses? 2. Can I...

    Hello from Switzerland

    Hello. I'm on a steep learning curve trying to replace a portable but expensive 532nm Nd-YAG with a blue PLD... Not a traditional laser pointer but this seems to be where all the wisdom is!

    [Newbie] >1W Blue/Green diode collimated for small spot size 50-100m away

    Hi there. I'm toying with the idea of using a cheap blue/green diode to check my homemade submersible isn't heading towards anything that isn't water. Not a Lidar system, just measuring the reflected light. My back-of-envelope calculations suggest a 1-2W laser will give me a detectable...
