Titel
Compact fibre-coupled high-power diode-laser unit
Abstract
We developed a compact fibre-coupled high-power diode-laser unit with optical output power up to 40 W cw, coupled into a multimode fibre with 600 mu m core diameter and NA 0.22. This diode-laser unit is suitable for pumping solid-state or fibre lasers as well as for material processing. Essential part is a novel beam-shaping system with compact size, high flexibility and low alignment requirements, which uses a pair of micro step-mirrors. The whole unit fits into a housing of approximately 110 x 100 x 90 mm.
