Laser Diode Burn-In Testing
-
Laser reliability testing consists of a series of tests that laser diodes can be put under in order to ensure their reliability for post-production use. There are different types of tests that can be carried out and there are multiple measurements that can be taken in order to evaluate the reliability of the device. One of these tests is laser diode burn-in.

Current Pulsers and Laser Diode Drivers (Pulsed Current)
-
These instruments generate current pulses whose amplitude is largely independent of the load voltage. This makes them ideal for pulsing device whose voltage may vary with time (for instance, the voltage drop of laser diodes may vary with temperature, or explosive squibs which change impedance during ignition). This voltage independence is a trade-off with speed. If faster rise times are required, consider using pulsed voltage instruments instead.

The Keysight 8474E is a high-performance detector using a gallium arsenide, planar-doped barrier detecting element. It features extremely flat frequency response over its entire band of operation and very good frequency response stability versus temperature. The Keysight 8474E is also very rugged with high resistance to ESD damage. The Keysight 8474E detector is available with a 2.4-mm (0.01 to 50 GHz) connector. This detector offers the options for optimal square-law loads (Option 102) and for positive polarity output (Option 103). Because the unit-to-unit frequency response tracking of this device is typically better than plus or minus 0.3 dB, no matched response option is offered.

LIV – High-power Laser Diode Testing
-
An important aspect of the development and manufacture of laser diodes is the so-called laser diode characterization, or laser IV curve. By applying increasing current to the laser diode so it that emits light, the optical output is measured together with the voltage drop across the diode element. The resulting LIV curve reveals important clues about the quality of manufacture and the performance of the laser diode, enabling a pass/fail decision to be met.
