  • Publication number: 20250233391
    Abstract: A multi-junction laser-diode module includes (a) a multi-junction laser diode having a plurality of laser junctions stacked in a vertical dimension parallel to the fast-axes of the laser beams emitted by the laser junctions, (b) a fast-axis cylindrical lens collimating each laser beam in the fast axis, whereby the laser beams emerge from the fast-axis cylindrical lens with mutually nonparallel propagation directions, (c) a transmissive beam-deflecting element that deflects the laser beams in the fast-axis dimension after the fast-axis cylindrical lens to make their propagation directions parallel, and (d) a slow-axis cylindrical lens configured to collimate each laser beam in the slow axis. The transmissive beam-deflecting element corrects for the propagation-direction discrepancy between the laser beams, in the fast-axis dimension, caused by fast-axis collimation. The multi-junction laser-diode module can thereby produce a laser beam bundle suitable for high-brightness fiber-coupling.
