Laser Diode Types:

When selecting a driver circuit to operate and control the laser diode the configuration of the laser diode must be taken into account. In general, there are four types of laser diode configuration: p-type, n-type, m-type and z-type. Depending on the configuration of the laser diode chosen an optimized driver circuit is required. P-type laser diodes require a driver circuit with an output from a positive supply voltage while an n-type laser diodes require a driver circuit with an output from a negative supply voltage. Both have internal photodiodes which can be utilized to control variation in the output power. An M-type diode must have a separately generated reference to cater for its internal photodiode’s feedback signal. Z-type laser diodes are diodes without internal photodiodes present.
