5W Lasers include any laser with the designation of 5W of average output power, being either CW (continuous-wave) or pulsed output. CW Lasers are always defined in average output power. Pulsed Lasers with an output power defined in Watts or Milliwatts usually define the laser’s average power, not the peak power of the laser.
Lasers with 5W of output power can also be referred to as 5000mW lasers.
RPMC Lasers provides a wide selection of 5W Lasers, including single-emitter laser diodes, multi-emitter laser diodes, VBG laser diodes, laser diode modules, CW DPSS lasers, CW fiber lasers, pulsed DPSS lasers, pulsed fiber lasers, multi-wavelength lasers, ultrafast lasers, and fiber amplifiers.
