TEC Lasers
Back to Lasers

  • Excellent wavelength and power stability
  • Extended lifetime
  • Line generators that have a uniform intensity distribution
  • Wide range of wavelengths, fan angles and patterns
  • Focusable
  • ESD, over-temperature, and reverse-polarity protection

StockerYale’s line of Lasiris™ TEC structured light projectors offers long laser lifetime and excellent wavelength, power and pointing stability. The TEC laser's thermoelectric system maintains a constant laser diode temperature, allowing the use of these lasers in applications demanding consistency.

The TEC laser is now available projecting a Violet beam, suitable for medical applications. Our design boasts one of the longest violet diode lifetimes, with a 1 year warranty offered on the 404 nm/5 mW laser. TEC lasers also incorporate a patented optical line generator that provides a uniform distribution of light instead of the more common gaussian distribution. This design provides superior quality light patterns in a variety of wavelengths while maintaining a stable laser light output.
