Electrical and optical study of semiconductor laser diodes and materials

Abstract

The characterization of a 2-D diode laser array from McDonald Douglas has been completed. The array consisted of 8 linear arrays of approximately 11 mm x 0.18 mm. Each array has between 7 and 8 diodes per mm. The threshold current is approximately 15 amps. The power output vs drive current (above threshold) of the array was measured. A peak power of 50 W was obtained at a drive current of 26 amps. Its far field pattern has a double lobe.
