difference between laser light source and led light source
Light source are offered in a variety of types including LED, halogen and laser. Both kind of light source must be able to turn on and off millions to billions of times per second while projecting a near microscopic beam of light into an optical fiber. Lasers are more powerful and operate at faster speeds than LEDs, and they can also transmit light farther with fewer errors.

Difference between Laser Light Source and LED Light Source
As the wide application of fiber optic system, optical
light source plays a more and more important part in it. We known a basic optical fiber system consists of a transmitter, an optical fiber and a receiver. The fiber optic light source, as an important component of the transmitter is modulated by a suitable drive circuit in accordance with the signals to be transmitted. Optical light source are also needed for performing fiber optic network testing to measure the fiber optic loss in the cable plant. Light source are offered in a variety of types including LED, halogen and laser. Among which, LED
and
Laser
light
source
are
two
types
of
semiconductor light sources. The following article will
discuss about some differences between laser and Led light source. Basically, both kind of light source must be able to turn on and off millions to billions of times per second while projecting a near microscopic beam of light into an optical fiber. During the working process of optical
signals, they are both supposed to be switched on and
off rapidly and accurately enough to properly transmit the signals. General
difference
between them as that
LEDS is the standard light source which is short for light-emitting diodes. Laser light source like gas lasers may be mainly used in some special cases. Lasers are more powerful and operate at faster speeds than LEDs, and they can also transmit light farther with fewer errors. Laser are also much more expensive than LEDs. LED fiber optic light source are made of materials that influence the wavelengths of light that are emitted. A basic LED light source is a semiconductor diode with a p region and an n region. When the LED is forward biased, current flows through the LED. As current flows through the LED, the junction where the p and n regions meet emits random photons. LEDs emitting in the window of 820 to 870 nm are usually gallium aluminum
arsenide
(GaAIAs).
Laser
is
also
semiconductor diode with a p and an n region like LED,
but it provide stimulated emission rather than the simplex spontaneous emission of LEDs. The main difference between a LED and a laser is that the laser has an optical cavity required for lasting. The cavity is formed by cleaving the opposite end of the chip to form highly parallel, reflective, mirror like finishes. VCSEL is a popular laser source for high speed networking,
with a cavity layer. It combines high bandwidth with low cost and is an ideal choice for the gigabit networking options. Different
wavelengths
travel
through
fiber
at
different velocities as a result of material dispersion.
What should always keep in mind is that both Laser and LED will not emit a single wavelength, but a range of wavelength that is known as the spectral width of the source. Fiber optic light source is always works with the fiber optic power meter. During the working process, it collimated beams of light and aim right down the center of the narrow single mode core and
propagates in essentially a single mode transmission.
