Abstract:
In various embodiments, a wavelength beam combining laser system includes a fast-axis collimation lens that is rotated with respect to a plurality of emitters in order to converge the emitted beams onto a dispersive element and/or reduce the size of the multi-wavelength output beam of the system.

Claim (Index 19):
A laser system comprising:\n a plurality of beam emitters each emitting an individual beam, each beam having a fast-diverging axis and a slow-diverging axis, the plurality of beam emitters being arranged in an array having a lateral axis; disposed optically downstream of the plurality of beam emitters, a fast-axis collimation (FAC) lens (A) for (i) receiving the emitted beams and (ii) collimating the beams along their fast-diverging axes, and (B) having a lateral axis oriented at a non-zero angle with respect to the lateral axis of the plurality of beam emitters; disposed optically downstream of the FAC lens, a beam rotator for (i) rotating the beams and (ii) directing the rotated beams toward a dispersive element; a dispersive element for receiving and dispersing the rotated beams, wherein the orientation of the FAC lens with respect to the plurality of beam emitters causes the rotated beams to converge toward the dispersive element; and a partially reflective output coupler for receiving the dispersed beams, reflecting a first portion thereof back toward the dispersive element, and transmitting a second portion thereof as a multi-wavelength output beam.
