ABSTRACT:
Two thin-clad laser diodes are disposed to form a stack-type device that emits two beams. The beams are substantially parallel and in proximity such that they share many fiberoptic systems designed for a single beam. In one embodiment the device functions as a dual-wavelength fiber-pigtailed light source. In another embodiment a feedback mechanism is provided to couple the diodes. Other embodiments include structures and methods for output power enhancement and tunable lasers.
