VIXAR Corporation 795nm, 850nm, 894nm from the United StatesVertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL) can achieve transverse mode single longitudinal mode output, suitable for rubidium atomic clocks, cesium atomic clocks, frequency standards, magnetometers, and other directions. Good reliability, available in various packaging options, including TO-4, TO-5,PLCC-2, Bare chips, etc. It can be equipped with TEC, making it a high-quality choice for instruments such as atomic clocks.
