The color is achieved by using specific laser diodes that emit light with a wavelength between approximately 380 to 420 nanometers. Unlike red and green lasers, which are based on more mature laser technologies, purple lasers are a product of advancements in semiconductor laser. Washington D. InGaN) and emitting around 400–480 nm, have been developed quite successfully, now offering substantially better output powers and device lifetimes than green diode lasers. Researchers at Toshiba Materials and Devices Laboratories (Kawasaki, Japan) have developed an indium gallium nitride-based blue-purple-emitting (417 nm) diode laser that emits a pulsed beam at room temperature; they are reportedly working "around the clock" to achieve continuous wave (CW). Electrical pumping can be via a DC current (as in laser diodes), an electrical discharge (noble gas lasers and excimer lasers), or a radio-frequency discharge (most CO 2 lasers).

OWC wirelessly transmits data using light waves across the infrared (IR), visible, and ultraviolet (UV) spectra. The system modulates the light signals, which then traverse through free space to reach the receiver, which demodulates them. Operating at the physical layer of the OSI model, optical modules are core devices in optical fiber communication systems. They mainly consist of optoelectronic components (such as optical transmitters and receivers), functional circuits, and optical interfaces, aiming to achieve the. Optical wireless systems support various topologies, including point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and ring bus configurations.
