Just like LEDs, laser diodes are made using high-grade semiconductor materials. However, despite just producing light over spontaneous emission, they use stimulated emission to release laser light. Laser diodes and modules illustrate a cornerstone of modern photonics. They emit incoherent light (light waves with different wavelengths, phases, and paths), producing a highly focused and coherent beam of light. They are tiny semiconductor components like LEDs but are built to obtain stimulated emission, which is a process that generates coherent light. Laser modules, on the other hand, take the basic laser diode and add essential devices for practical use, such as:
Laser diodes and modules are continually improving with research focusing on higher power, shorter wavelengths (for higher resolution), and enhanced efficiency. They are essential devices in a vast and growing range of technologies.
