Series-level technical context
This model has no standalone PDF and only a small number of model-specific rows. The values below are traceable context from 2 nearby configurations on the same source-product record; they define the parameters to qualify, but are not substituted for an order-specific datasheet.
Nearby series records state Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): ~1.0. These are series context, not guaranteed values for PGL-FP-495; confirm them on the order-specific datasheet.
Application context

PGL-FP-495: 495 nm emission determines compatible optics, coatings and detectors for Laser medical treatment. Beam quality, divergence and pointing stability should be checked against the experiment geometry.
PGL-FP-495: 495 nm emission can be matched to the absorption or excitation band used in Flow cytometry. Power stability and beam pointing should be confirmed because both affect quantitative image or fluorescence intensity.

Choosing a laser
Which specifications decide the experiment, and which ones cost money without changing the result.
PhotonicsLinewidth, spectral width, RIN, M², and coherence length answer five different questions. Translate each into the units your experiment is designed in — and learn which ones not to pay for.
