摘要
A 1-D linear array of 23 high-power broad-area laser diode (BALD) beams in the blue spectral region (447 nm) is combined employing a V-shape external Talbot cavity in Littrow configuration. A surface grating provides optical feedback via self-imaged diffractive coupling to the diode bar and induces all the emitters to lase at a common central wavelength. The external cavity reduces the spectral linewidth of the free-running laser diode bar from several nm to 20-50 pm (FWHM) with the power level of 11.8 W. The narrow spectrum of the external cavity stabilized laser can be tuned in the range of 3-4 nm by adjusting the tilt angle of the grating while the laser diode bar is operated in constant current mode at a temperature of 20 degrees C.
