Beyond prototypes

Why a new package?

Designed for series production

Many laser packages work well for prototypes. Series production introduces additional requirements: reproducible assembly, efficient electrical contacting, simplified thermal integration, and reliable optical alignment.

The new nanoplus OEM package was developed with these requirements in mind:

Reproducible manufacturing: Package geometry designed for consistent assembly at volume
Connector interface: Electrical connection via connectors, no soldering of individual TO pins
Simplified thermal integration: Direct placement to the heatsink enables easy installation
Reliable optical alignment: Side-emitting beam allows easier access for collimation lens mounting

Make laser integration easier

Where it is used

Applications

Use the strongest trace gas absorption bands

The 3000 - 5000 nm range covers the strongest absorption bands of key industrially relevant trace gases, including most hydrocarbons, CO_2, and NO - making this package well suited for TDLAS-based instruments in:

Process gas monitoring (oil & gas, petrochemical)
Environmental and emissions monitoring
Photoacoustic spectroscopy systems

Common questions

FAQ

Is this package compatible with my current wavelength requirement?

The package is available for any target wavelength between 3000 nm and 5000 nm.

What is the minimum order quantity?

300 units. Contact us for pricing at your required volume and target wavelength.

Can I get samples before committing to a production order?

Yes - contact our technical sales team to discuss sampling.

How is the package mounted?

The package is designed for direct mounting onto a heatsink using two M2.5 screws, providing a stable mechanical interface and efficient thermal coupling.

Is the package hermetically sealed?

No. But the package is glued to protect the laser device from environmental influences and to ensure reliable long-term operation.

Can the package be used as a heatsink?

No. Heat should be transferred exclusively through the bottom of the base plate. The package cap is not intended for thermal contact.

Can optics or fixtures be mounted on the package lid?

No. The package lid is not designed to carry mechanical loads such as collimation units or fixtures.

Is the package compatible with custom laser specifications?

Yes. The package can be combined with application-specific laser characteristics depending on the requirements of your OEM project.

Can the package be adapted to my system requirements?

If your application requires modifications beyond the standard package, our engineering team will discuss possible customization options with you.
