Abstract
Beam shaping is required for semiconductor lasers to achieve high optical fiber coupling efficiency in many applications. But the positioning errors on optics may reduce beam shaping effects, and then lead to low optical fiber coupling efficiency. In this work, the positioning errors models for the single emitter laser diode beam shaping system are established. Moreover, the relationships between the errors and the beam shaping effect of each shapers are analysed. Subsequently, the relationship between the errors and the optical fiber coupling efficiency is analysed. The result shows that position errors in the Z axis direction on the fast axis collimator have the greatest influence on the shaping effect, followed by the position errors in the Z axis direction on the converging lens, which should be strictly suppressed in actual operation. Besides, the position errors have a significant influence on the optical fiber coupling efficiency and need to be avoided.
