(SYLMAR, CA) October 7, 2005 — Quintessence Photonics Corporation announced the release of a new line of high brightness, high power, fiber coupled single emitter lasers utilizing its proprietary BrightLaseTM semiconductor laser technology.

These 4W, hermetically sealed, 8-pin fiber coupled single emitter products feature industry leading brightness, power, and reliability from 100um core diameter 0.15NA or 0.22NA fiber at 808nm, 885nm, 915nm, and 976nm. To ensure the ruggedness of the product in the broad range of customer applications, QPC’s fiber coupled single emitters are manufactured with state-of-the-art hard solder processes and mounts having coefficient of thermal expansion closely matched to the semiconductor laser die. For applications requiring additional integration, a thermistor and internal photodiode are available.

“The release of our fiber coupled single emitter products delivers the advantages of QPC’s BrightLaseTM technology to customers requiring fiber coupling for end pumping and other direct diode applications in defense, industrial, and medical markets,” Paul Rudy, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Quintessence, commented.
