High laser power density and high temperature are the main failure causes of laser diodes. If proper protection procedures are taken, the laser diode lifetime is about 10,000 h.
For military-grade laser diodes, there are four primary environmental considerations that can help to ensure reliability in extreme environments.
In many applications, active temperature control improves the performance of optoelectronic devices. In most solid-state detectors, noise decreases with operating temperature.
To improve the usability and extend the application spectrum of high-power laser diodes, relaxed cooling requirements – with-out compromise in laser performance and lifetime – are required.
