RADIATION SOURCE Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: optoelectronics; laser radiation sources.

SUBSTANCE: proposed radiation source characterized in that it has no additional optical components for summing up light beam, nor needs complex adjustments or high-precision operations for installation of these components has main semiconductor laser and optical system affording desired optical characteristics of light beam, such as lens. Newly introduced in device is additional semiconductor laser whose optical and mechanical characteristics are similar to those of main semiconductor laser; this additional laser is spaced from the latter at distance equal to order of magnitude of laser radiating part dimensions within optical system dissipation circle symmetrically relative to optical axis of radiation source.

EFFECT: reduced cost of radiation source.
