Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (short VCSEL) are laser diodes, which’s resonator and light emitting direction is aligned vertically. Characteristic for VCSELs are a narrow optical bandwidth of typically <2nm, high temperature stability of the wavelength and fast rise and fall times of typically <1ns. VCSELs can be modulated with very high frequencies (100MHz or more).
Lextar VCSELs are equipped with diffusor lenses and optionally also with integrated photo diode (type PV85). The top quality lens offers a high uniformity of the light distribution within the FOV (Field of view), which is available from 50x40 degrees up to 120x90 degrees, and make these VCSELs perfectly suitable for 3D Time of Flight (ToF) cameras for person identification, gesture control, driver monitoring systems or machine vision systems. They also can be used in other applications, for example as IR light source in surveillance cameras, night vision systems or for optical data communication.
AEC-Q102 qualified versions are available (PV85Q, PV88Q).
