What is Laser Diode
SANYO currently markets AlGaAs infrared laser diodes in the 780 830 nm wavelength, as wellas AlGaInP based red laser diodes in the 635 675 nm wavelength. SANYO realized 635 nm
AlGaInP laser diode for the first time in the world. The low operating current and high operating
temperature are realized by using misoriented substrate and MQW (Strain compensated) active
layer. With unique structures developed by SANYO, providing the following features, these laser
diodes are highly rated in a broad range of applications including compact discs, CD-R/RW, DVD
systems, bar code scanners, laser pointers and printers. SANYO laser diodes are also compatible
with multimedia and other new optical equipment on which advanced information societies in
future depend.
A full line-up includes index guided short-wavelength, low-noise, high output power

Absolute maximum ratings
Electric optical characteristics
Definition of Feature
Absolute maximum ratings are levels that can not be exceeded even momentarily
under any external conditions. The levels are stipulated in terms of case temperature Tc = 25C.
1. Light output power (PO)
This is maximum allowable output during
continuous operation. In the drive current
light output characteristics shown in the
figure on the right, there are no kinks or
bends under this light output power.
2. Reverse voltage (VR)
This is maximum allowable voltage with areverse bias applied to the element. The
level is stipulated separately for a laser
diode and a photodiode.
3. Ambient operating temperature (Topr)
This is the maximum ambient temperature
in which the element can operate. The level is defined by case temperature of the
element.
4. Ambient storage temperature (Tstg)
This is the maximum ambient temperature for element storage.
1. Threshold current (Ith)
Although PIF curve distinguishes the LED
light emitting region A from the laser
oscillating region B, the current level thattriggers laser oscillating is the threshold
current. In actuality, Ith is defined as the
point where the straight line in B intersects
the X axis.
2. Rated light output power (Po)
This is recommended light output power
during continuous operation.
3. Operating current (Iop)
This is a current in the forward direction
that is required to generate rated light output power.
4. Monitor current (Im)
This is an output current of the photodiode at rated light output power.

5. Differential efficiency (dP/dIop)
This is the increase in light output power per
unit of drive current. The amount is given by
the angle of the straight light output powerline with respect to forward current in the
laser oscillating range.
6. Lasing wavelength ( p)
This is peak lasing wavelength at rated
light output power. The lasing spectrum is
broadly classified as either a single mode
or a multi-mode as shown in the figure on
the right, and peak lasing wavelength is
defined by the maximum spectral intensity
in either mode.
7. Beam divergence angle : Parallel ( ), Perpendicular( )
Light radiating from laser chip diverges as shown in the figure on the lower left. When the
light distribution is measured in the parallel (X axis) and perpendicular (Y axis) directions
with respect to the surface of the PN-junction on laser chip, (a) and (b) are shown in the
figure on the lower right. The beam divergence angle at 1/2 of the peak intensity of the light
distribution (full angle at half maximum) is defined as and .

This is expressed by a light axis shift with
respect to a reference surface. In a beam
divergent distribution of the parallel andperpendicular directions as shown in the
figure on the right, shifts in both directions are
defined by (a - b)/2.
This is expressed by a shift in
the position of the light emitting
area. X and Y represent the
shift from the center of the
package, while Z represents a
shift with respect to stipulated
positions (a) from a reference
surface to the edge of a laser
diode (LD).
10. Astigmatism (As)
An astigmatism refers to a shift in focus position seen in the perpendicular and parallel
directions on the PN-junction surface of laser chip as shown in the figure on lower left.
11. Droop ( P)
This is the rate of light output power attenuation when a laser is driven by pulsed constantcurrent. The rate is defined by (A - B)/B x 100 % as shown in the figure on the lower right.

Precautions for use
13
Precautions for Use
Laser characteristics (wavelength, operating
current) vary with temperature, and variation
is more extreme at shorter wavelength. We
recommend installing an APC circuit to main
tain a constant output because operating
current varies significantly with temperature.
By the same token, laser reliability can be im
proved by designing products based on their
heat release characteristics. Since laser reli
ability falls off steeply at a higher temperature, never allow the case to exceed the op
erating temperature range given in specifica
tions while a laser is in use.

2. Thermal radiation
Make sure that a thermal radiating plate (W 30 x L 30 x t 5 mm) made of aluminum or
some other high thermal conducting materials is mounted to laser diode. The reliabilityof laser diode is closely linked to junction temperature, so reliability rapidly declines at
a higher temperature. Do not overlook thermal radiation.
Thermal radiating plate(Al or Cu)
Use a light power meter to measure light output
power of laser diodes. When measuring with APC
drive, set a power meter at an angle as shown in
the right figure so that a photodiode in a laser
diode is not exposed to reflected light from the
power meter.

5. Soldering conditions
Maximum temperature is set at 260C and soldering time is within 3.0 seconds and
minimum clearance of 1.6 mm from the root of a lead is necessary.6. Prevention of breakdown due to static electricity or surge current
Laser diode may be adversely affected by static electricity and surge current and,
consequently causes breakdown of element and reduction of reliability unless the
following cares are taken :
Power supply, installation and measuring equipment should be grounded. A noise
filter or noise-cut transformer is to be provided to power supply input utilized.
During operation, working clothes, hats and shoes should be static-protected when in
use.
Also, a workman body should be static-protected by use of an earth-band or the likeand grounded through high resistance (500 k - 1M ).
A soldering iron should be grounded to protect laser diodes from voltage leak.
Any container for carriage and storage should be static-protected.
Avoid using laser diodes at a place where high frequent surge current may be
generated as an inductive electric field gives breakdown or deterioration. (Avoid being
placed around fluorescent grow lamp, for example).
190
Do not exceed, even momentarily, the maximum ratings.
When laser diode is driven in excess of the maximum ratings, it causes not only instant
breakdown or deterioration but also considerable reduction in reliability.Laser diode may be damaged by surge current generated at power on-off operation.
Check on the transient characteristics of power supply to make sure that such surge
current does not exceed the maximum ratings.
The maximum ratings are specified by case temperature at 25C. Design should be
made well to work with temperature. As temperature goes up, power dissipation as
well as maximum light output power is reduced.

If current is flowing into the forward direction
and output continues to rise following a kink or
other deviation, then the laser eventuallyreaches facet breakdown (COD) level where
the crystal at the facet melts due to the high
optical density. Special care must be taken in
the handling of red lasers because they may
continue to oscillate with a low power of 2 to 3
mW even after occuring facet breakdown.
There are several ways to tell whether an ele
ment is damaged or destroyed, such as
through a far field pattern or an increase in the
operating current. The life of a laser is significantly curtailed once the element is damaged,
so special care must be taken to avoid not
only excessing current when adjusting the out
put, but surge like static electricity as well.

9. Package handling
Package must not be cut off, reworked nor deformed. Do not hold the cap of laserdiode tight, otherwise it may bring about cracks onto the window glass.
Do not touch the surface of the window glass. Any scratch or contamination may result
in reduction of optical characteristics.
Remove small contaminations on the surface softly using a cotton stick with a small
amount of methyl alcohol.
Polarizing characteristics of red lasers vary
with distortions in the active layer. Conven
tional infrared lasers as well as 650 to 675nmlasers oscillate in the TE mode (polarizing di
rection parallel to the junction plane). As
such, special care must be taken when using
polarized optical parts with 635nm laser (ex
cept DL-LS1035) because it oscillates in the
TM mode (polarizing direction parpendicular
to the junction plane).

This APC drive circuit is used for type Ipin connecting diagram.
When a laser diode (LD) emits light, light current (Im) proportionated to light output
power flows to a monitoring photodiode (PD) and a voltage V1 = Im (R3+R4) generates.
This voltage is sent by the op amp OP1 through a buffer to the op amp OP2.
Reference voltage V2 obtained from constant-voltage diode and volume switch is also
sent to the op amp OP2. The op amp OP2 compares two voltages and then varies base current of output
transistor while controlling the current flowing to laser diode so that V1 = V2 is constantly
maintained. This is how constant light output power is obtained.
Adjustment
Turn volume switch R3 as high as it will go, and set 5 k volume switch so that V2 = 0.
Mount laser diode with power turned off.
Turn power on, and turn 5 k volume switch to the center point while measuring light
output power with a light power meter. Here, light output power should be 1/2 of the
setting level. If difference from the setting level is significant, then turn off power andadjust R3 and R4.
Turn volume switch R3 until light output power matches the setting level.
R1 R4 setting procedure
Set light output range based on the data for laser diode characteristics and then use
the table below to determine proper operating current and monitoring output current
for light output power.

This is an example of an APC circuit for battery-powered Type I pin connection
circuits. It is ideally suited for a low-current DL-3148-023 The reference voltage
here is the voltage between the base and emitter of transistor TR1, and is normally
0.6 volts.
Since the absolute maximum rated power of the DL-3148-023 is 3 mW, the power
adjustment range for the circuit is between 0.5 and 2 mW. Resistors R3 and R4
used for adjusting power are set as outlined below.
Since Im is 0.12 mA at a maximum power of 2 mW, then R4 = VBE / Im = 0.6 / 0.12
= 5k .
Then since R3 determines minimum optical output and Im is 0.03 mA with 0.5mW
of power, then R3 + R4 = VBE / Im = 0.6 / 0.03 = 20k and R3 =15k .

The output light from laser diode is visible or invisible, and harmful to a human eye. Avoid looking at the output light of
laser diode directly or even indirectly through a lens while oscillating. When an optical axis is to be adjusted to a laser
beam and outer optical systems, a laser beam should be observed through an infrared TV camera or other equipment.
Particularly when the light is collimated or focused through a lens, safety glasses should be worn and care should be
taken to absolutely protect human eyes from the directly entering beam.
CAUTION THE USE OF OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS WITH THIS PRODUCT WILL INCREASE EYE HAZARD.
