Abstract
The authors have obtained, from 20 μm aperture 0.98 μm wavelength three-core ARROW-type InGaAs/InGaAsP/InGaP diode lasers, a diffraction-limited beam pattern up to 0.55 W peak-pulsed power with 78% of the light in the central lobe and near diffraction-limited-beam operation to 0.7 W. Interelement optical absorption loss is found to be important for improved beam quality at high drive levels, in good agreement with theory
