<p>A linear array of diode laser emitters is manufactured with sufficient thermal and electronic isolation among the emitters to permit separate addressability. The emitter bar has first and second opposed surfaces and a third surface through which the emitters direct output. A first surface of the emitter bar is affixed to a 'standoff' element that has conductive surfaces connecting each emitter to a power source; these connections are maintained after a series of spaces is formed between the emitters of the emitter bar. The second surface of the emitter bar is affixed to a heat sink to form a finished assembly.</p> |
