Aaron L. Hodges has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Modular diode laser assembly
    Patent number: 7848372
    Abstract: An extremely versatile diode laser assembly is provided, the assembly comprised of a plurality of diode laser subassemblies mounted to a stepped cooling block. The stepped cooling block allows the fabrication of a close packed and compact assembly in which individual diode laser subassembly output beams do not interfere with one another.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 30, 2008
    Date of Patent: December 7, 2010
    Assignee: nLight Photonics Corporation
    Inventors: Derek E. Schulte, Yu Yan, Robert J. Martinsen, Aaron L. Hodges, Scott R. Karlsen
