Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient High-Power Laser Diodes
Paul Crump,G. Erbert,H. Wenzel,C. Frevert,C. M. Schultz,K.-H. Hasler,R. Staske,Bernd Sumpf,A. Maassdorf,F. Bugge,S. Knigge,G. Trankle +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of efforts to increase ηE is presented and it is shown that for well-optimized structures, the residual losses are dominated by the p-side waveguide and nonideal internal quantum efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative theoretical and experimental studies of two designs of high-power diode lasers
TL;DR: In this article, an extreme double asymmetric design to mitigate the impact of the p-side waveguide is studied and compared with a more conventional design, and an increase of the efficiency at the highest power is demonstrated, but it is less than expected from simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Beam Quality in Broad Area Lasers via Suppression of Lateral Carrier Accumulation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that carrier accumulation at the edges of the contacts can be eliminated and that as a consequence, near and far field are narrowed and the rate of increase of beam parameter product (BPP) with self-heating reduces by 35%.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
975-nm high-power broad area diode lasers optimized for narrow spectral linewidth applications
Paul Crump,C. M. Schultz,A. Pietrzak,S. Knigge,Olaf Brox,Andre Maaßdorf,Frank Bugge,Hans Wenzel,G. Erbert +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, three different diode laser device designs have been developed and discussed and are discussed and compared using a Volume Bragg Grating (VBG) for VBG use.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Low-loss smile-insensitive external frequency-stabilization of high power diode lasers enabled by vertical designs with extremely low divergence angle and high efficiency
Paul Crump,S. Knigge,Andre Maaßdorf,Frank Bugge,Stefan Hengesbach,Ulrich Witte,Hans-Dieter Hoffmann,Bernd Köhler,Ralf Hubrich,Heiko Kissel,Jens Biesenbach,Götz Erbert,Guenther Traenkle +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that VHG-stabilized ELOD-based diode lasers have significantly lower loss and larger operation windows than conventional diode laser designs in the collimated feedback regimes, even in the presence of significant (≥ 1 μm) bar smile.
