Lasers that designate 20mW of output power can have either CW (continuous wave) or pulsed output. CW Lasers are always defined in average output power. Pulsed Lasers with an output power defined in Watts or Milliwatts usually define the laser’s average power, not the peak power of the laser.
The Matchbox series offers excellent performance and reliability in an ultra-compact “all-in-one” integrated laser head. They come standard with an integrated internal voltage up-conversion that allows using a 5V power supply while maintaining low noise operation. The monolithic design of the Matchbox Series laser includes thermally stabilized optics in a hermetically sealed housing, ensuring reliable and maintenance-free operation. All the Matchbox series modules include a 12-month warranty and are RoHS compliant. All of these features make them the ideal laser source for integration into commercial flow cytometers.
