摘要
This paper gives an overview of recent product development and advanced engineering of diode laser technology at Spectra-Physics. Focused development of device design, heat-sinking and beam-conditioning has yielded significant improvement in both power conversion efficiency (PCE) and reliable power, leading to a family of new products. CW PCEs of 60% to 70% have been delivered for the 880 to 980 run wavelength range. For 780 to 8 10 nm, PCE are typically between 50% and 56%. Comprehensive life-testing indicates that the reliable powers of devices based on the new developments exceed those of established, highly reliable, production designs. For the progress of ultra-high power bars, CW output power in excess of 1000 W and 640 W have been demonstrated from single laser bars with doubled-side and single-side cooling, respectively. Spatial power density of greater than 2.8 kW/cm(2) and FWHM spectral widths of 3.5 nm have been obtained from laser stacks.
