OptoCooler™ UPF40 Module
The OptoCooler UPF40 thermoelectric module is ideally suited for the cooling and temperature control of optoelectronic devices such as semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) and laser diodes, and enables the integration of thermal management capabilities directly into a package. The OptoCooler UPF40 is the latest module in Nextreme's OptoCooler family of thermoelectric coolers designed for the photonics industry.
The OptoCooler UPF40 module can pump a heat density of up to 72 W/cm2 at 25°C, and as a result, it can move a maximum of 3.7 W of heat with an active footprint of only 5.1 mm2.
With Nextreme's thin-film thermal bump technology at its core, the OptoCooler UPF40 module can be integrated directly into electronic packaging to deliver cooling for a wide variety of thermal management applications. For example, the module can be embedded in a SOA package to maintain proper operating conditions. SOAs are used in telecommunications systems to restore degraded optical signals to their original quality without converting them into electronic signals. SOAs are key components for the future success of high-speed photonic networks.
The module can be used for a number of optoelectronic applications including high-bright LEDs, laser diodes, VCSELs, and detectors.
The new OptoCooler UPF40 module operates with heat fluxes 4 to 5 times greater than conventional thermoelectric coolers. In addition, the module's extremely small footprint opens up new thermal management capabilities in electronics that were previously unavailable.
OptoCooler UPF40 modules are available for order now. Pricing is available upon request.
