  • Patent number: 8401046
    Abstract: A multibeam coherent laser diode source comprises a master laser, a linear amplifier and two perpendicular amplifiers. The master laser and amplifiers are in the form of a single heterostructure containing an active layer, two limiting layers and a radiation influx area with an influx layer. The heterostructure is characterized by the ratio of the refractive index of the heterostructure to the refractive index of influx layer. This ratio is determined from a range extending from one plus delta to one minus gamma, where delta and gamma are defined by a number much less than one and gamma is greater than delta. The linear amplifier is positioned so that optical axis of radiation propagation from master laser coincides with the axis of the linear amplifier. Each perpendicular amplifier has output edge and is positioned so that its optical axis is situated at right angle to the axis of linear amplifier.

  • Patent number: 8238398
    Abstract: Invention relates to three types of laser light sources: diode laser, integral diode laser (in form of integrally connected diode lasers) and integral semiconductor optical amplifier (in form of integrally connected driving laser diode and semiconductor amplifier element), which amplifier consists of original optical resonator of diode laser and original laser radiation coupling. Two reflectors in optical resonator of diode laser, which falls into three types of above-mentioned laser radiation sources, have greatest possible reflection factor on both sides thereof and radiation coupling from active layer is carried out, by-passing active layer, through broadband semiconductor layers of the modified heterostructure of diode laser with practically fully antireflective (less than 0.01%) optical face.

  • Patent number: 8204092
    Abstract: Injection emitters (light-emitting diodes, superluminescent emitters) are used in the form of highly-efficient solid state radiation sources within a large wavelength range and for wide field of application, including general illumination using white light emitters provided with light-emitting diodes. Said invention also relates to superpower highly-efficient and reliable injection surface-emitting lasers, which generate radiation in the form of a plurality of output beams and which are characterized by a novel original and efficient method for emitting the radiation through the external surfaces thereof.

    Abstract: A multibeam coherent laser diode source comprises a master laser, a linear amplifier and two perpendicular amplifiers. The master laser and amplifiers are in the form of a single heterostructure containing an active layer, two limiting layers and a radiation influx area with an influx layer. The heterostructure is characterized by the ratio of the refractive index (n?) of the heterostructure to the refractive index (nBT) of the influx layer. The ratio n?:nBT is determined from a range extending from one plus delta to one minus gamma, where delta and gamma are defined by a number much less than one and gamma is greater than delta. The linear amplifier is positioned so that the optical axis of radiation propagation from the master laser coincides with the axis of the linear amplifier. Each perpendicular amplifier has an output edge and is positioned so that its optical axis is situated at a right angle to the axis of the linear amplifier.
