Abstract:
In various embodiments, laser apparatuses include thermal bonding layers between various components and sealing materials for preventing or retarding movement of thermal bonding material out of the thermal bonding layers.

Claim (Index 37):
A wavelength beam combining laser system comprising:\n a beam emitter emitting a plurality of discrete beams and having first and second opposed surfaces; focusing optics for focusing the plurality of beams onto a dispersive element; a dispersive element for receiving and dispersing the received focused beams; a partially reflective output coupler positioned to receive the dispersed beams, transmit a portion of the dispersed beams therethrough as a multi-wavelength output beam, and reflect a second portion of the dispersed beams back toward the dispersive element; a first electrode mount disposed proximate the first surface of the beam emitter; a thermal bonding layer disposed at an interface between the first electrode mount and the first surface of the beam emitter, the thermal bonding layer (i) improving thermal conduction between the first electrode mount and the beam emitter, (ii) comprising a thermal bonding material, and (iii) being in direct mechanical contact with the beam emitter and the first electrode mount; and disposed along the interface between the first electrode mount and the first surface of the beam emitter, a sealing material for preventing or retarding movement of the thermal bonding material out of the thermal bonding layer, wherein the sealing material and the thermal bonding material comprise different materials.
