Innovative Techniques for the Production of Low Cost 2D Laser Diode Arrays.Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs

摘要

The primary objective of this program is to develop a low cost, high yieldingmethodology for processing, packaging and characterization of MBE grown two dimensional high power laser diode arrays. Projected increases in overall yield of AlGaAs diode lasers would reduce manufacturing cost from current $10 to $20 per peak watt to below $3 per peak watt. Emphasis will be placed on innovative packaging techniques that will utilize recent advances in diamond heat sinking technology.
