Abstract

We introduce basic knowledge about diode lasers and point out some of the most important recent innovations in this field. Three key fields of progress are treated, namely laser diode material/structure, mounting/cooling/packaging-technology and optics/collimation/multiplexing. The most remarkable achievement is the continuous wave generation of 509 W by a single diode laser bar and 25 W by a single laser diode.
