•Light Emitting Diodes LED29 are designed for emitting at a spectral

range around 2900 nm. Heterostructures (HS) are grown on InAs

substrates. The output emission can be modulated by current flowing in

a forward direction.

•Light Emitting Diodes LED29 are developed for using in optical gas

sensors and medical diagnostics. They have stable output power and

lifetime more then 10000 hours.

•Related products: LED29 can be used in optical pair with our photodiodes

PD36. Our standard LED Driver provides power supply of LED29 in two

recommended here regimes (Quasi-CW and Pulsed).
