Abstract

Abstract: Three-dimensional simulation is used to theoretically assess temperature profiles in proposed 10-mm-wide cw laser diode bars packaged in a standard heat spreader of the C – S mount type with the aim of raising their reliable cw output power. We obtain calculated temperature differences across the emitting aperture and along the cavity. Using experimental laser bar samples with up to 60 W of cw output power, the emission spectra of individual clusters are measured at different pump currents. We compare and discuss the simulation results and experimental data.
