Measurement of optical attenuance over long path-lengths and at relatively specific wavelengths, is facilitated by recent developments in laser-diode technology, compared to previous instrumentation methods. Substantial optical power may be coupled into low divergence optical beams and at higher power efficiency compared to other sources. Unfortunately, well-known characteristics of solid-state laser diodes predicate use of complicated bias and modulation stabilization methods to avoid both facet damage and operation below threshold over temperature extremes.
