METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR COOLING AT LEAST ONE LASER DIODE WITH A COOLING FLUID

摘要

A method and system for cooling at least one laser diode (14) with a cooling fluid which does not come into direct contact with the at least one laser diode (14) is presented. Liquid cooled heat sinks (10, 11) are provided on opposing sides of each laser diode (14) having an inlet (20), channel (18) and an outlet (22) wherein the cooling fluid flow. Individual modules are held together by a single holding mechanism (28) allowing individual modules to be removed from the array for easy testing or replacement.
