ZNA-CD-457 – CD Series Laser at 457 nm

The ZNA-CD-457 is a compact 457 nm CW laser from the CD Series, designed for plug-and-play operation with integrated electronics and a standardized interface. Its miniaturized design and high stability make it ideal for life sciences, environmental monitoring, inspection, machine vision, and other precision applications. This laser features a near TEM00 beam, low divergence (<1 mrad), high polarization (>50:1, optional >100:1), and low amplitude noise (<1% RMS, optional <0.5%). Fast warm-up (<5 minutes), TTL and analog modulation, and a 10,000-hour lifetime ensure reliable, long-term operation. The ZNA-CD-457 is perfect for OEM integration or standalone systems where compactness and stability are critical.
