Abstract

The paper describes recent developments in TDL (tunable lead-salt diode laser) manufacturing technology at Laser Photonics Analytics Division, resulting in higher-temperature operation (greater than 200 K CW) and improved spectroscopic performance and reliability. These factors have led to lower costs and general system simplifications that are necessary for routine monitoring and diagnostic applications. System design considerations are discussed in the light of these developments, and new TDL developments currently under way are presented.
