Quality assurance

Laser diodes (semiconductor lasers) have a much longer life than other lasers such as gas or solid-state lasers. The

components of our lasers have optimum characteristic ranges.

1.Quality assurance system

(1) After the wafers have been manufactured, electrical and optical characteristics are measured to verify that

characteristics can be achieved as the manufacturing process progresses.

(2) In-process inspections are conducted at various manufacturing points to ensure the stability of our assembly

operations.

(3) All products are burned-in to minimize initial and random failures.

(4) Characteristics of all products are tested before shipping.

(5) Products are managed by wafer lot.

(6) Reliability tests are performed on randomly selected samples.

2.Quality assurance measures

(1) Materials, manufacturing conditions, and inspection are controlled and maintained based on company set

standards. Temperature, dust, humidity and other environmental conditions are also controlled based on company

standards.

(2) Measurement instruments used during the manufacturing process are regularly inspected and calibrated based on

company measurement control standards.

Safety

The laser beam emitted from a laser diode is almost invisible to both the human eye and the animal eye, however, it

will injure the eye and sufficient caution must be exercised to avoid direct exposure or exposure through a fiber to the

beam when a laser diode is in operation.

To adjust the optical axis or perform other similar work, we recommend using an infrared-sensitive ITV camera.

We also recommend that protective glasses be worn.
