1. 488 nm
2.TEM00
3. Variable from 500 MW to 10W
4. Solid gold PL-E pro with gold beam expander

1 - Somewhere between 605 - 610nm
2 - TEM00 of course, though I wouldn't turn it down, even if TEM34.
3 - I'd say no more than 2W. Thopugh even 200mW would be nice and mellow. 2W would be nice to make beamshows with.
4 - I wouldn't know. I'd get some really slick Ehgemus or Crouse host, with a marbled blue and orange design. Because I'm all wonky like that, and it'd be wicked.
Transverse modes, in lasers, is shorted to TEM. It describes the visual output of the laser. The common one you know and love is TEM00. Which is one single spot. From there, you get TEM01, or TEM02 (also 10, and 20, and so on). TEM01 refers to two spots side-by-side. TEM02 refers to 3. TEM12 would have 6 spots (2x3). And so on.
You RARELY see multiple TEM modes in laser diodes. I never have. Though you frequently get them in DPSS. I misaligned a 473 during experimentation, and saw upwards of TEM44, TEM55, and so on. It was a wrecked laser by this point.
They also appear in a circular format.

If I knew the wavelength for lemon yellow that's what I'd have put instead.
Yeah I know the rules suck but I figured if I didn't set boundaries everybody's choice would be:
1-100W tuneable
1W 589 single mode TEM 00 diode. With auto focus in a brass and copper rechargeable host.
The host would have this style engraving with 589 in gold inlay across the handle.
