Laser diodes Red laser diodes for digital video discs (DVD) RLD-65MC / RLD-65PC The RLD-65MC and RLD-65PC are red-colored laser diodes developed for use with DVDs. With the introduction of a strained multi quantum well in the active layer, a low threshold current is achieved. Also, with a high operating temperature range that reaches up to 70C, this laser diode can be used with DVD-ROM.
