TEC-200 Power Littrow Series - Cougar
We have designed our TEC-200 Power Littrow Laser according to the basic principles of the Littrow cavity concept. The laser system consists of a diode laser, collimating optics and a diffraction grating. The laser light is collimated and coupled to the diffraction grating. The first order diffraction beam is directed back into the laser chip. The light emitted from the rear facet is coupled into an opitcal fiber. One of the major advantages of this laser design is that it is possible to achieve much higher output power than with other types of laser systems.
