Optimized Packaging Solutions for Multi-Emitter Laser Modules

Packaged high-power diode lasers have applications in many areas ranging from optoelectronic high density data storage, high power industrial laser for material processing, to medical (chirurgical/aesthetical) applications. The paper presents the development of families of laser modules which, using the same platform and assembly lines, can achieve a specific combination of power, brightness, compactness and cost effectiveness, depending on final application. Results for products emitting at 9XXnm and at 450 nm will be presented, describing the design, the realization and the production.
