High Energy Laser Direct Diode Applied Technology

Abstract

This effort designs and develops single mode diode emitters to increase output power to 100 Watts with >60% electrical-to-optical efficiency and develop packaging for an array of emitters. This effort will also design and develop a 100 kW-class laser subsystem with 58% Electric to Optical efficiency and 80% fractional Power in the Bucket; validated in a lab setting. This effort will leverage industry and National Labs research to overcome gain limitations in the semi-conductor gain region.
