Coherently Combined Diode Laser Arrays and Stacks

Coherently Combined Diode Laser Arrays and Stacks

We have coherently combined up to 7.2 W CW using an individually addressable 10-element-array of 960-nm slab-coupled optical waveguide lasers (SCOWLs). We are currently scaling the phase-locked output power to 100 W using SCOWL stacks.
