This post looks at the advantages of the Compact green laser modules and the range of applications it addresses.<\/p>\n<h2>Direct emission green laser modules<\/h2>\n<p>As a distributor of premium laser diodes, ProPhotonix has access to the latest in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prophotonix.com\/led-and-laser-products\/laser-diodes\/\">laser diode<\/a> technology. One of the most important laser diode developments in recent times has been the introduction of the Osram direct emission green laser diode. This diode offers significant advantages over traditional DPSS laser diodes. To read more about these advantages view our post on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prophotonix.com\/blog\/green-laser-diodes\/\">Green laser diodes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Why choose green laser modules?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prophotonix.com\/led-and-laser-products\/laser-modules\/laser-modules-color\/green-laser-modules\/\">Green laser modules<\/a>\u00a0are often chosen for visual alignment applications because the human eye is more sensitive to green light than to red. In these types of applications, OEMs can substitute a\u00a0<strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">green laser module<\/strong>\u00a0in place of a red laser module, with the same power output, making the\u00a0<strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">green laser module<\/strong>\u00a0appear brighter. Alternatively, for equivalent apparent brightness, a lower power\u00a0<strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">green laser module<\/strong>\u00a0may be used in place of a higher power red laser. For more on the advantages of\u00a0<strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">green laser modules<\/strong>, read our post on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prophotonix.com\/blog\/waiting-green-laser-modules\/\">Green laser modules<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>The New Green Laser Module<\/h2>\n<p>ProPhotonix offer a range of\u00a0<strong data-redactor-tag=\"strong\">green laser modules<\/strong>.
