Patent number: 7801190Abstract: A laser radiation source which is scalable with respect to output is designed in such a way that laser diode elements can be arranged on a carrier so as to be stacked equidistantly and with low stress at a low manufacturing cost. The laser radiation source comprises a vertical stack of laser diode elements contacted on both sides via electrically conductive substrate layers, and at least one multi-layer carrier comprising a first and a second metallic layer which are separated by at least one electrically insulating layer of nonmetallic material. At least one of the metallic layers is divided into metallic layer regions which are arranged adjacent to one another and at a distance from one another. Oppositely polarized substrate layers of adjacent laser diode elements are arranged on common layer regions of a metallic layer. Collimating lenses serve to collimate the radiation emitted by the laser diode elements.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2007Date of Patent: September 21, 2010Assignee: JENOPTIK Laser GmbHInventors: Dirk Lorenzen, Petra Hennig, Matthias Schroeder, Ulrich Roellig

Patent number: 7483456Abstract: In a diode laser module and a method for the production thereof, there is a need to fix the optical elements required for collimating, beam shaping and/or beam rearrangement of the radiation of a laser diode element with high reproducibility and long-term stability in an optically aligned manner, wherein the optically aligned state is produced by a successive adjustment of the optical elements in the beam of the switched-on laser diode element. It must be ensured that the fixing can be carried out in a process that is at least partially automated. At least one intermediate carrier is arranged on a heat-dissipating carrier serving to cool the laser diode element. The heat conductivity of the intermediate carrier is less than that of the heat-dissipating carrier, and the alignment of the optical components and fixation by sequential soldering is carried out on the surface of the intermediate carrier.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2005Date of Patent: January 27, 2009Assignee: JENOPTIK Laserdiode GmbHInventors: Hartmut G. Haensel, Petra Hennig, Dirk Lorenzen, Guido Bonati

Patent number: 6898222Abstract: A diode laser arrangement is disclosed wherein a radiation source is designed which can be scaled with respect to power such that different types of cooling can be applied and the configuration of the radiation field is suitable for adapting to different tasks in a simple manner. For this purpose, every diode laser is connected to a thermal contact surface of a separate, heat-spreading carrier which is fastened to a cooling surface of a common cooling element so as to be electrically insulated. The carriers are arranged adjacently in such a way that the line-shaped emission regions of the diode lasers are adjacent in series and the p-n junction planes extend parallel to the thermal contact surfaces. The diode laser arrangement is particularly suitable as a pump light source.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2001Date of Patent: May 24, 2005Assignee: Jenoptik Laserdiode GmbHInventors: Petra Hennig, Guenter Hollemann
