The LDM-4409 Laser Diode Mounting Fixture provides a compact, easy to use solution for mounting and temperature control of C-mount laser diodes. The 4409 features a temperature control range of +10C to 85 °C for lasers with up to 10 W optical power. Optimized thermal resistance between the laser diode and the temperature controlled hot plate minimize the temperature rise of the laser.The LDM-4409 has been optimized for pre and post burn-in characterization in R&D or manufacturing test applications. A unique spring loaded clamping mechanism facilitates device insertion and removal. A 1mm clearance zone in front of the C-mount device allows for measurement of highly divergent beams and easy integration into most measurement set-ups. These mounts are compatible with ILX Lightwave current sources and temperature controllers with standard laser and temperature controller connectors for quick setup.
For fast, accurate characterization of your C-mount devices, the LDM-4409 comes with an integrated 120W TEC and cooling fan. The high power TEC has the thermal performance to dissipate the head load associated with high power C-mount laser diodes.
The LDM-4409 incorporates a unique clamping mechanism for quick and effortless device insertion and removal without the need for any additional tools. The spring loaded device locates and clamps the C-mount device repeatably to cut down adjustment time of measurement devices and optics.
Careful attention to the LDM-4409s mechanical design results in a low thermal resistance between the C-mount device and the mounting block. A spring loaded clamping mechanism provides repeatable, constant clamping pressure on the C-mount device. Further reduction in thermal resistance can be achieved by clamping the device with a #2-56 screw through the center of the device. Low thermal resistance eliminates measurement inconsistencies due to temperature differences between the mount and the device under test.
The LDM-4409 design facilitates integration into optical test and measurment systems through a 1mm clearance zone from the front of the laser. Measurement devices such as integrating spheres as well as optics can be located in close proximity to the front of the laser.
