초록

Spectral Beam Combining (SBC) is used for a high-power fiber laser in order to overcome the power limitation of single fiber laser. In SBC, several laser bwams with different wavelengths are combined to obtain a single-aperture beam by diffraction grating. The combining efficiency is dependent on a linewidth, beam quality and specific wavelength of each beam among others. In this paper, we consider the method of a wavelength monitoring and a feedback control of laser diodes used as seeds of laser beams to obtain optimum combining conditions. In order to measure the wavelengths of multi-beam, we use the high resolution camera and diffraction grating with 1,800l/mm. The experiment results show the possibility of feedback control of a current and temperature of multi-seed laser diodes to obtain optimum wavelengths for SBC.
