Oclaro’s shorter wavelength diode delivers higher power
Technology breakthrough was accomplished by developing new processes
Oclaro, Inc, a provider and of optical communications and laser solutions, has announced the introduction of the HL63153AT product, a red laser diode which delivers a 150 mW single-transverse-mode optical output power at a wavelength of 638 nm.
The Oclaro HL63153AT laser diode, the company says, offers a more brilliant image display over previous versions, enabling high-lumen pico projector or miniature displays for personal computers, and other mobile devices such as smartphones, gaming, and digital cameras, making it possible to project a bright image of multimedia and information content anytime, anywhere.
The company says that the HL63153AT laser diode offers the highest single-transverse-mode optical output power at a red wavelength available on the market, with 25% more power than its predecessor. This technology breakthrough was accomplished by developing new processes including an optimized waveguide structure and fine-tuning the laser device structural parameters.
The HL63153AT laser diode has a low power consumption of 0.6 W at 150 mW optical output power, operates in the 638 nm wavelength range, and comes in a very small, 3.8 mm-diameter TO industry-standard package facilitating very compact integration.
“This newest red laser diode product has been designed as a direct result of customer requests for a shorter wavelength diode that delivers higher power in a thin package,” said Takayuki Kanno, President, Oclaro Japan

Dan Ayres, Managing Director, Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology Dan Ayres continues, “It is important that we respond to
and GM of the Modules and Devices Business Unit. “We are able to deliver this light source with high brightness, high operating temperature range and small-form-factor package, so that system designers can develop compact RGB modules for the mobile display market which is experiencing rapid growth leading into 2014.”
Oxford Instruments restructures for the future
Restructuring will sharpen focus on main target customer groups, and build on existing strengths
Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology, a provider of plasma etch and deposition systems, has announced a restructuring that will sharpen the focus on its main target customer groups, and build on the company’s existing strengths in its markets.
Effective April 1st 2013, the company has been redefined into three discrete Business Groups, made up of multi-disciplined teams which will be directly aligned to the needs of its customers. The Groups will encompass product management, technical review and sales support, product and process configuration and development, backed by the company’s excellent sales and customer support teams worldwide.
“We are confident that our decision to reshape the company will result in even better effectiveness, innovation and customer experience. Our customers are the key to Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology’s success, and we are sure that this structural change will enhance our customers’ experience through the increased focus our teams will bring to bear on their areas of expertise,” comments Dan Ayres, Managing Director at Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology, “Our business has trebled in size since 2006, and building on the success of recent years, we are creating a structure and environment aligned with our strategy that supports our further growth.”
