Abstract

The fiber coupled system based on mini-bars is an effective way of avoiding complex beam shaping to reduce costs and improve brightness. Forty mini-bars mounted on copper microchannel heatsink are arranged in two stacks to collimate the output beam of the stacks with the aspherical cylindrical lens and cylindrical lens array in fast and slow axis directions in this paper. For increasing the fill factor of the beams of the stacks, the beams are combined spatially in the fast axis direction. The combined beam could be coupled into the fiber of 800 m core diameter and 0.22 numerical aperture. The opto-optical efficiency of the fiber coupled module is about 58% and the maximum output power is 1360 W with the power density of 1.73105 W/cm2 at fiber output facet.
