Re: new Sharp 495nm diode(after testing it confirmed just 488nm)






Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Nice find! Looks like the last one left according to the item description :)

Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Very nice news, now 3 builds are waiting. :wave:
 
Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully this is real and not fake.
 
Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Wow and just few days ago I was thinking the 490-500nm range is out of reach without forking out $2k minimum. I placed an order for one and will be heading toward CNI for spectrometering. Will report back with results very soon.
 
Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

This would be a nice find if in fact they are really 495nm, and if there are any more available.
Keep your fingers crossed! :D

This one actually has a datasheet that states 495nm just like the 505nm which turned out to be within spec, so I'm pretty optimistic.

I sent an email to song song about them, hopefully they have a stock.
 
Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Exciting. We've gone so long without any new WL's diodes and now we have 505's, 473's and possibly 495's. Good stuff. :yh:

I can only hope that they rebrand the 480's that are 473's as 475's or something and then add in 485's that are actually 485's. That would be perfect.

Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Thats really awsome. Is there a second source for these diodes, or is somebody willing to sell one of these 495nm diodes to me?

Vice versa, I will post a complete charakterisation including WL as a function of temperature and current and a measurement of the beam profile and beam divergence.

Look forward to hear from one of you.

Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

495 does sound much more exciting than 473. Lets hope they are real and do become available. I left it a bit late to order a 473 from DTR. Will have to wait for more stock. A 505 on the way though.
 
Re: new Sharp 495nm diode

Yeah, heard about these yesterday. I thought existotem had more than two at that time. You could always check Techhood, and Newgazer. Same company.
