摘要: An external-resonator laser system having multiple laser elements is configured to permit each laser to undergo individual amplification notwithstanding optical beam combination. In this way, overall output power may be scaled in a desired fashion, depending on the selected characteristics of the optical amplifier elements. To achieve additional power, each of the amplifiers may implemented as a phased array. Viewed more generally, a phased-array configuration affords beam combining in two stages, with each contributing input source itself composed of multiple sources whose outputs have been combined. If each phased-array source emits at a different wavelength, this design offers a multi-wavelength output whose power level may be scaled in accordance with the number and character of the devices forming each phased array.

摘要: A semiconductor laser operating in the mid-infrared region is described. In one particular embodiment, the semiconductor laser is provided having first and second cladding layers consisting essentially of GaSb that surround an active core, wherein the index of refraction of the first and second cladding layers is less than but close to the index of refraction of active core. The semiconductor laser in accordance with this invention has a low divergence angle with a high power efficiency. In an alternate embodiment, the semiconductor laser is provided having first and second cladding layers consisting essentially of AlxGa1-xAsySb1-y that surround the active core with an aluminum mole fraction between 0 and 25 percent. The index of refraction of the first and second cladding layers consisting essentially of AlxGa1-xAsySb1-y can be adjusted to match a variety of types of active cores and to provide a pre-determined divergence.
