  • Vertical-cavity surface emitting laser support assembly
    Patent number: 11283239
    Abstract: A laser mount assembly includes a lens holder including a collimating lens. A laser subassembly is positioned adjacent the lens holder and includes a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser, a thermal electric cooler, and a thermistor. A printed circuit board is positioned adjacent the laser subassembly and includes a plurality of heating components. The heating components heat the area between the lens holder and the laser subassembly.
