Laser Safety and Classification
Safe practices and proper usage of safety equipment should be taken into consideration when operating lasers. The eye is susceptible to injury, even from very low levels of laser light. Thorlabs offers a range of laser safety accessories that can be used to reduce the risk of accidents or injuries. Laser emission in the visible and near infrared spectral ranges has the greatest potential for retinal injury, as the cornea and lens are transparent to those wavelengths, and the lens can focus the laser energy onto the retina.
Safe Practices and Light Safety Accessories
- Laser safety eyewear must be worn whenever working with Class 3 or 4 lasers.
- Regardless of laser class, Thorlabs recommends the use of laser safety eyewear whenever working with laser beams with non-negligible powers, since metallic tools such as screwdrivers can accidentally redirect a beam.
- Laser goggles designed for specific wavelengths should be clearly available near laser setups to protect the wearer from unintentional laser reflections.
- Goggles are marked with the wavelength range over which protection is afforded and the minimum optical density within that range.
- Laser Safety Curtains and Laser Safety Fabric shield other parts of the lab from high energy lasers.
- Blackout Materials can prevent direct or reflected light from leaving the experimental setup area.
- Thorlabs' Enclosure Systems can be used to contain optical setups to isolate or minimize laser hazards.
- A fiber-pigtailed laser should always be turned off before connecting it to or disconnecting it from another fiber, especially when the laser is at power levels above 10 mW.
- All beams should be terminated at the edge of the table, and laboratory doors should be closed whenever a laser is in use.
- Do not place laser beams at eye level.
- Carry out experiments on an optical table such that all laser beams travel horizontally.
- Remove unnecessary reflective items such as reflective jewelry (e.g., rings, watches, etc.) while working near the beam path.
- Be aware that lenses and other optical devices may reflect a portion of the incident beam from the front or rear surface.
- Operate a laser at the minimum power necessary for any operation.
- If possible, reduce the output power of a laser during alignment procedures.
- Use beam shutters and filters to reduce the beam power.
- Post appropriate warning signs or labels near laser setups or rooms.
- Use a laser sign with a lightbox if operating Class 3R or 4 lasers (i.e., lasers requiring the use of a safety interlock).
- Do not use Laser Viewing Cards in place of a proper Beam Trap.
Laser Classification
Lasers are categorized into different classes according to their ability to cause eye and other damage. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a global organization that prepares and publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic, and related technologies. The IEC document 60825-1 outlines the safety of laser products. A description of each class of laser is given below:
Class | Description | Warning Label |
---|---|---|
1 | This class of laser is safe under all conditions of normal use, including use with optical instruments for intrabeam viewing. Lasers in this class do not emit radiation at levels that may cause injury during normal operation, and therefore the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) cannot be exceeded. Class 1 lasers can also include enclosed, high-power lasers where exposure to the radiation is not possible without opening or shutting down the laser. | ![]() |
1M | Class 1M lasers are safe except when used in conjunction with optical components such as telescopes and microscopes. Lasers belonging to this class emit large-diameter or divergent beams, and the MPE cannot normally be exceeded unless focusing or imaging optics are used to narrow the beam. However, if the beam is refocused, the hazard may be increased and the class may be changed accordingly. | ![]() |
2 | Class 2 lasers, which are limited to 1 mW of visible continuous-wave radiation, are safe because the blink reflex will limit the exposure in the eye to 0.25 seconds. This category only applies to visible radiation (400 - 700 nm). | ![]() |
2M | Because of the blink reflex, this class of laser is classified as safe as long as the beam is not viewed through optical instruments. This laser class also applies to larger-diameter or diverging laser beams. | ![]() |
3R | Class 3R lasers produce visible and invisible light that is hazardous under direct and specular-reflection viewing conditions. Eye injuries may occur if you directly view the beam, especially when using optical instruments. Lasers in this class are considered safe as long as they are handled with restricted beam viewing. The MPE can be exceeded with this class of laser; however, this presents a low risk level to injury. Visible, continuous-wave lasers in this class are limited to 5 mW of output power. | ![]() |
3B | Class 3B lasers are hazardous to the eye if exposed directly. Diffuse reflections are usually not harmful, but may be when using higher-power Class 3B lasers. Safe handling of devices in this class includes wearing protective eyewear where direct viewing of the laser beam may occur. Lasers of this class must be equipped with a key switch and a safety interlock; moreover, laser safety signs should be used, such that the laser cannot be used without the safety light turning on. Laser products with power output near the upper range of Class 3B may also cause skin burns. | ![]() |
4 | This class of laser may cause damage to the skin, and also to the eye, even from the viewing of diffuse reflections. These hazards may also apply to indirect or non-specular reflections of the beam, even from apparently matte surfaces. Great care must be taken when handling these lasers. They also represent a fire risk, because they may ignite combustible material. Class 4 lasers must be equipped with a key switch and a safety interlock. | ![]() |
All class 2 lasers (and higher) must display, in addition to the corresponding sign above, this triangular warning sign. | ![]() |

 (posted 2024-07-24 12:42:42.533) We are using CPS532 and it turns out that beam quality is critical with regard to our application. So is the higher order TEM modes excited at the laser cavity? And what would be the M2 factor of the beam. Thank you in advance. hkarpenko
 (posted 2024-07-24 08:48:33.0) Dear Hyungchul Park,
thank you very much for your feedback. These laser modules aren´t specifically designed to have very stable output power and good M² value, that is needed for certain applications. Thus we don´t state an M² value for these. Higher harmonics of this laser are blocked using filtersets, but cannot be fully excluded. I will contact you directly to discuss this further with you. yujie lu

 (posted 2023-09-12 08:09:14.29) For these laser modules, I think it would be helpful to know the polarization quality and direction of the beams. A simple extinction ratio (e.g. 100:1) would tell how polarized the beam is, and for elliptical beams it would be important to know the direction of polarization relative to the beam axes. Don't need values with one degree resolution, but it would be nice to know if the polarization is roughly along the long or short axes of the beam shape. Thanks. Conner Phillips
 (posted 2023-07-25 13:52:39.837) I am looking into using either a CPS830(S) or CPS850(S) for alignment of an optical system using a shearing interferometer. While the individual peaks in the respective spectra are quite narrow, the presence of multiple peaks in a 1-2 nm range could be problematic I guess. Do you have any insight on these products in this application? Thanks you. hkarpenko
 (posted 2023-07-28 08:40:25.0) Dear Conner,

 (posted 2022-08-24 09:28:21.0) Thank you very much for your feedback!
The CPS532 as well as the other CPS modules cannot be controlled directly on a computer. They do not have a computer interface. You could however use a power supply / voltage source with a computer interface. Then you could control the power supply on the computer and use it to switch the CPS532 on and off.
I will contact you directly to provide further assistance. Terry Bartlett
 (posted 2022-04-18 12:23:19.01) You mention that these compact phono jack lasers come with elliptical or round beam profiles, but in the description it looks like all come with elliptical profiles. Is it possible to get a CPS450 with a round beam profile? cdolbashian
 (posted 2022-04-20 04:49:21.0) Thank you for reaching out to us Terry! The statement above is simply indicating that some of the CPS lasers have circular profiles while others are elliptical. Although the one you are interested in is elliptical, we do have a nice investigation on our "Lab Facts" showing different methods of circularizing a beam:https://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=11426.

I was interested in measuring the laser (junction) temperature or the temperature of the heatsink? Is there a recommended procedure for that?
Or can you assume safely that the laser module (e.g. we have your CPS532) will run at room temperature if mounted properly (proper heat dissipation) with no wavelength shifft?

 (posted 2020-11-17 22:21:29.86) May I know the bandwidth of the laser of CPS532-C2 or the coherence length of it? soswald
 (posted 2020-11-18 09:03:27.0) This is a response from Soenke at Thorlabs. Thank you for your inquiry. I am very sorry about the fact that we cannot specify coherence features for the CPS modules. Unfortunately, we do not have data about the spatial coherence length or area for these modules. The temporal coherence length, however, is related to the spectral emission bandwidth.
A typical spectrum for each module is shown in the spec sheet. Please note that these plots are typical only and will vary from unit to unit. In some cases, the resolution of the spectrometer/OSA is not sufficient to show the actual linewidth. Furthermore, the temperature of the CPS modules is not actively controlled and for some modules, you will see that temperature also affects mode distribution. Chen Li
 (posted 2020-08-12 15:09:27.917) We purchased a CPS532-C2 laser module for the purpose of evaluating the tilt angle of a customized laser v-mount module. We wanted to assess the beam position movement by mounting the CPS532-C2 module on the v-mount along an optical rail testing system. However, we observed that the beam coming from the CPS532-C2 was not at the center of the cylinder/laser tube. When looking at the front end of the laser module, the lens is not at the center of the cylinder/laser tube. Can we assume the laser beam is still parallel to the center of the cylinder/laser tube with a constant offset in this case? If not, is there any recommended collimated source mounted in cylinders that we could use to achieve our goal? nreusch
 (posted 2020-08-14 02:31:36.0) Thank you for contacting us. The axis deviation of CPS532-C2 is specified to be 5 mrad maximum. If you observe a larger deviation, please contact your local Tech Support team. We currently do not offer a compact laser diode module with a lower axis deviation specification. 大塚 洋一

 (posted 2019-04-26 00:08:19.44) Hi,
We have a CPS532 laser diode module that we are incorporating into our microscope. We have the LDS5 power supply and that works great, but we are integrating all the electronics and power for them into one area and would like to use a different power supply.
I was wondering if you give me more information about the power requirements for the CPS532. Does the power supply for the laser diode need to be current controlled or just voltage regulated? Does the laser diode have internal circuitry that regulates to voltage or current? How much power regulation is required to maintain a constant steady output? Etc. wskopalik
 (posted 2019-04-30 04:17:30.0) This is a response from Wolfgang at Thorlabs. Thank you very much for your inquiry!
The CPS532 needs a DC operating voltage of 5V which can e.g. be supplied by the LDS5/LDS5-EC or by the CPS1 battery pack. Other DC voltage sources with a flat 5V output voltage would of course work as well. The flatter and more constant the supplied voltage is, the more stable the laser will work.
The CPS laser diode modules are internally operated in constant-power mode, i.e. you have a feedback from an internal photodiode which is used to maintain the optical output power. These diodes are however not thermally stabilized, so their optical output power may fluctuate slightly during operation.
I will contact you directly to provide further assistance. ggorju

 (posted 2018-07-10 17:34:33.127) Hi! We are using several different CPS modules in a custom built mount that happens to electrically connect the aluminum housings. We learned that typically the housings are electrically isolated from +/- leads. However, sometimes it's not the case, to a point when a module would turn on undesirably by receiving power from am adjacent module via the connected housings. I could not find any info on the housing wiring/isolation vs +/- leads. If the parameter is not rated, is it in principle model-specific of sample-dependent? Thanks! swick
 (posted 2018-08-09 03:56:32.0) This is a response from Sebastian at Thorlabs. Thank you for the inquiry.

The description mentions internal photodiode feedback control. How does that work internally? Perhaps that is defective? YLohia
 (posted 2018-03-02 09:41:49.0) Hello, thank you for leaving feedback regarding CPS532 and my apologies for the problems you are encountering with your unit.
The photodiode is not built-in, since this is a frequency-doubled module and the pump diode is 1064nm (there is a filter to attenuate this wavelength before it hits the photodiode). It is quite likely that this problem is caused due to a thermal issue as the diode and crystal continue to warm the output power cycles, or perhaps the temperature of one of the components is cycling. These 532nm units tend to be particularly sensitive to temperature due to the non-linear crystal inside. Providing some heatsinking could fix the issue. Sometimes issues like this can also be caused by power supplies that are not outputting a constant 5V.
I have reached out to you directly via email to troubleshoot this further. wolter

 (posted 2015-09-10 07:56:32.193) I noticed that the collimated beam profiles of your laser modules are very nice and homogeneous.
Do you sell the collimation lenses in these modules as separate products or would you be able to sell them to us independently of the laser modules ?
The reason I'm asking this is because I have difficulties getting homogenous collimated beams using the standard Thorlabs molded aspheres because they produce lots of ring-like features in the collimated beam. I also have a CNC polished asphere from Thorlabs here which seems to show the same ring-like intensity modulation.
My light source is a superluminescent diode at 840nm with beam divergence angles of 10 and 30 degrees. besembeson

 (posted 2011-06-06 11:28:14.0) I have 2 comments:
1. After using a CPS182 laser module in a experiment where the laser is often moved to various postions the power leads have broken off the connectors. I have strained relieved the power cables on a spare unit using shrink tube. This seems to work okay but it takes up more space than I would like. Have you considered providing a strain relief design on the units you sell? If I try to solder the leads back on the connector, is there a potential to damage the laser diode by overheating?
2. Do you sell a pinhole, say around 250 microns in diameter, that would mount on the front output plate of the CPS182.

 (posted 2009-04-15 15:36:55.0) Additional Response from Laurie at Thorlabs to Aidi: Upon speaking to a colleague here, I would like to add to my previous post. The main issue you will have is noise. Due to mode hopping as the diode temperature changes or as the diode ages, there will be times that the laser is hopping between two longitudinal cavity modes. Additional noise sources could come from the servo loop. These products are designed as alignment tools and not as low noise optical sources. For low noise performance, a constant current drive with a temperature-controlled mount is recommended. The user then needs to find a stable operating point in both current and temperature. Also the user should know that this stable operating point may change with time. We hope this additional information is helpful. Laurie
 (posted 2009-04-15 14:58:34.0) Response from Laurie at Thorlabs to aidi: We do not have concise data for the power stability of our CPS modules compared to one with a TEC controller. The laser diodes in our CPS laser modules are operated in constant power mode, which makes them very stable in terms of optical power. However, since there is no temperature control for these diodes, heat can build up in the junction causing instability. Although this instability will be small for low powers, a TEC-controlled environment will definitely lead to more stability. aidi

- Portable USB Battery Pack with 5 VDC and up to 2 A Output
- Compatible with CPS Laser Modules and USB-Powered Devices
- 10 000 mAh Capacity
Thorlabs offers the CPS1 Battery Pack for powering our CPS laser modules and other USB-powered devices. The CPS1 battery pack outputs 5 VDC at up to 2 A, and offers 10 000 mAh capacity. A fully charged CPS1 battery pack can power any CPS laser module for at least 36 hours of continuous operation. The pack includes a USB-to-Micro-USB cable for charging and a custom USB-to-Phono cable for powering the CPS laser module. To activate the battery, simply push the power button once. The pack may be charged using standard 5 V USB chargers for portable devices or using a computer USB port. While the battery pack is charging, it can still supply power to an attached laser module.
The CPS1 Battery Pack also includes an LED flashlight adjacent to the micro-USB port. The flashlight is activated and deactivated by holding the power for two seconds.
When connecting the CPS Diode Module, the module and adapter should be connected first. Then the adapter cable should be plugged into the isolated power supply to avoid a short circuit in the phono jack. Please note that the USB adapter included with this battery pack is not intended to be used with power supplies that are not current-limited or isolated from ground, such as some computers or laptops.
