As laser technology continues to advance, edge-emitting lasers (diode lasers) are increasingly recognized for their potential in precision optical applications. However, limitations in light path direction have restricted their usability in various scenarios. To overcome this challenge, LITUP Corporation has developed a high-performance micro mirror that precisely redirects light paths, significantly broadening the applications of edge-emitting lasers.
Key Advantages of the Micro Mirror
During the development of the micro steering mirror, we integrated multiple innovative technologies to optimize its size, packaging, and application flexibility. The primary benefits of this technology include:
Optimized Pickup Design for Improved Packaging Efficiency
In the packaging process, precise pickup and placement are critical for product consistency. Our micro steering mirror design specifically addresses the die-picking stage, ensuring alignment between the center of mass and the pickup point.
These design enhancements offer several benefits:
Increased accuracy in automated packaging, ensuring stable component placement.
Reduced process errors and waste, improving overall production yield.
Simplified assembly, leading to lower manufacturing costs.
These features enable seamless integration of the micro steering mirror into existing packaging technologies, reducing manufacturing challenges.

Compact Design for Miniaturized Devices
As wearable devices and optical modules continue to shrink in size, component dimensions have become a critical consideration. The micro steering mirror is designed to significantly shorten the distance between the laser diode's emission point and the refraction surface, resulting in a more compact structure.
This design offers multiple advantages:
Reduced component height and length, making it ideal for applications with space constraints.
Lower height requirements for large collection angles, improving overall optical system efficiency.
Prevention of adhesive creep at the mirror’s lower edges, enhancing packaging stability.
These features make the micro steering mirror particularly well-suited for optical sensing, scanning systems, and next-generation micro-display applications.
