Titel
The BRIDLE project: High brilliance diode lasers for industrial applications
Abstract
We report on the EC BRIDLE project, which aims to develop a direct diode laser source (with more than 2kW of output power from a 100µm diameter optical fibre and an efficiency of 40%) for industrial sheet metal cutting applications. The project concepts are explored, from novel tailored diode laser mini-bars to advanced beam combining architectures.
