ams OSRAM Laser Diodes

Color Lasers (EEL)

The ams OSRAM is a leading player in colored edge-emitting laser diodes. This comprehensive product portfolio supports various industrial, consumer, medical, and automotive applications.

Laser diodes in the visible spectral range are the ideal light source in industrial, consumer, medical, and automotive markets. Thanks to the device's excellent beam quality, these lasers are ideally suited for the optical imaging of light.

Single-mode lasers are used in many applications, such as Laser leveling, particle detection, scanning, spectroscopy, and pico projection. High-power multi-mode lasers extend the range of applications by material treatment, such as engraving or welding metals, laser projection, and high-luminance light sources.

Color Lasers (VCSEL)

The ams OSRAM offers various Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) for different applications. It also offers a wide variety of VCSEL products for different applications needing wavelengths ranging from visible red 680nm to infrared 940nm.

Flood illuminators:
    • Packaged Flood Illuminator VCSELs are used for time-of-flight and infrared vision applications

Dot projectors for 3D sensing:
    • Dot projectors are used for 3D sensing with Active Stereo Vision and Structured Light applications

Bare die VCSELs:
    • The bare die VCSELs offer more freedom for customers to use the preferred optics in more tightly integrated systems 
    • The applications range from distance sensing, time of flight, IR illumination, or, for example, atomic clock applications

IR Lasers (EEL)

The ams OSRAM infrared laser portfolio offers a broad range of ideal light sources for industrial, consumer, and automotive markets. High-power Continuous Wave CW laser diodes are perfect tools in industrial applications for welding or cutting metal sheets. They are used either as a pump source for solid-state or fiber lasers or in direct diode laser systems.

Laser diodes designed for pulse operation are used in LIDAR or Time-of-Flight ToF applications, which are used in autonomous driving vehicles and mobile phones. They can provide distance information or even a 3D image for applications such as face recognition.

IR Lasers (VCSEL)

The ams OSRAM's Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) are a key enabler for the fast-growing 3D sensing market. The number of applications that utilize 3D sensing technology continues to increase, from Automotive LiDAR, robot surroundings detection, and smartphone unlocking via facial recognition.

A broad portfolio of VCSEL dies, packages, and modules addresses various application requirements and is engineered to serve even the most demanding sensing applications in the mobile/wearable, automotive, and industrial segments.
