摘要
A beam combining method to improve the brightness of diode lasers is proposed based on a V-shaped external cavity spectral beam and beam-waist splitting polarization combination. This design has the outstanding advantages of improving the beam quality, brightness, and versatility of the diode laser. Specifically, an output power over 16W with M-2 factors of 1.79 x 3.92 (Beam Parameter Product BPP = 0.55 x 1.22 mm mrad) at 40 A in the fast and slow axis is demonstrated for a commercial standard cm-bar. Furthermore, the slow axis M-2 of the combined laser is improved by 56% compared with that of a single emitter. Additionally, the brightness of 262 MW center dot cm(-2)center dot sr(-1), 136% higher than that of spectral beam combining without using beam-waist splitting polarization, was realized.
