Claim 5:
6. The laser diode assembly of claim 5, further comprises:
a plurality of second electrical contact pads spaced apart from each other on the second heat sink, each second electrical contact pad being in electrical contact with a different corresponding second submount; and
wherein each vertical conductor of the first plurality of vertical conductors provides a direct electrical connection between a corresponding first electrical contact pad and a corresponding second electrical contact pad,
wherein at least one first electrical contact pad provides a direct electrical connection between a corresponding vertical conductor and a corresponding first submount, and at least one second electrical contact pad provides a direct electrical connection between a corresponding vertical conductor and a corresponding second submount, and
wherein laser diodes of adjacent laser diode units are electrically connected in series by a corresponding second electrical contact pad, a corresponding vertical conductor, and a corresponding first electrical contact pad.
