kW-level high brightness blue diode laser

At SPIE 2020 conference, we presented a blue diode laser that provides 200W output from a 200μm core diameter 0.22 NA fiber. Blue laser with high power and high brightness is the best choice for higher efficiency demanded by industrial processing. Based on 7 modules each provides 160W from a 105μm core diameter 0.22 NA fiber (NA 0.15/0.22 power ratio >93%), using fiber beam combining, 1000W output is achieved from a 330μm core diameter 0.22 NA fiber. And the aging test of 160 W unit modules was carried out. 1000W high brightness blue laser source is an ideal choice for processing (welding, 3D printing, etc) of non-ferrous metals, especially copper.
