Abstract

Beam-Shaping Optimization of the diode bar end-pumped laser

Highlights

  • Nowadays diode laser bars with theirs compact design, energy scaling by increasing the number of emitters as well as easy adjustment of the wavelength by temperature makes them basic elements for high-power solidstate laser pumping

  • In this paper we proposed a method of optimization of a laser bar beam-shaping device (BSD), using of a model of off-axis multiple Gaussian beam propagation

  • In horizontal direction (Slow axis) the beam is determined by the parameters of the laser diode: emitter width, pitch and number of emitters, which is modified by the number of chops

Summary

Introduction

Nowadays diode laser bars with theirs compact design, energy scaling by increasing the number of emitters as well as easy adjustment of the wavelength by temperature makes them basic elements for high-power solidstate laser pumping. In this paper we proposed a method of optimization of a laser bar beam-shaping device (BSD), using of a model of off-axis multiple Gaussian beam propagation. It chops the incident laser beam into a specific number of beams and redirects and repositions these beams, so that they emerge from the beam shaper stacked on top of one another.
