  • Abstract
    We have developed a reliable, high yield, void-free method for soldering high power semiconductor laser diodes epitaxy-side down. We have consistently obtained absolute thermal resistances as low at 1.5°C/Watt and specific thermal resistances of 4·10-3 K·cm2/Watt on oxygen-free high conductivity (OFHC) copper heatsinks. This method has very wide process margins (75°C), exhibits excellent repeatability (4%), and is suitable for laser die attach to diamond submounts
