   THORLABS CLD1015   Description / Specification:    
THORLABS CLD1015 1.5A Laser Diode and Temperature Controller

The Thorlabs CLD1015 Laser Diode and Temperature Controller is a complete driver package designed to drive and cool pigtailed butterfly laser diodes. It contains a built-in mount for portability and mechanical stability. The CLD1015 accepts fiber-coupled lasers, superluminescent diodes, and laser amplifiers in both type 1 and type 2 butterfly packages. It supplies up to 1.5 A of drive current, making it compatible with Thorlabs' entire family of pigtailed butterfly diode lasers. This all-in-one unit provides a high degree of output stability and maintains the diode temperature with 0.005 °C of stability over 24 hours, prolonging the life of the diode. In addition to a full complement of safety features, such as a soft start mode, current and temperature limits, and external interlock compatibility, the CLD1015 laser diode driver includes a switchable noise reduction filter and a modulation input.

Coherence Length
Average distance over which superimposed waves lose their phase relationships

Linewidth
Linewidth is the width of a spectral line in terms of wavelength, wave number and frequency.

Power Flatness Versus Wavelength
When changing the wavelength at constant power setting and recording the differences between actual and displayed power levels, the power flatness is ± half the span (in dB) between the maximum and the minimum of the measured power levels.

Spectral Width
Spectral Width is the wavelength interval over which the magnitude of all spectral components is equal to or greater than a specified fraction of the magnitude of the component having the maximum value. In optical communications applications, the usual method of specifying spectral width is the full width at half maximum. This is the same convention used in bandwidth, defined as the frequency range where power drops by less than half (at most -3 dB).

Telecom Bands
Optical fiber communications typically operate in a wavelength region corresponding to one of the following Bands. O Band (original): 1260–1360 nm. E Band (extended): 1360–1460 nm. S Band (short wavelengths): 1460–1530 nm. C Band (conventional): 1530–1565 nm. L Band (long wavelengths): 1565–1625 nm. U Band (ultralong wavelengths): 1625–1675 nm
