Described pump laser is a semiconductor laser diode.
Laser array by the output of fiber-optic output face, come and go through resonant cavity and just in time to finish one time Fourier transform when a week arriving the fiber-optic output face once more, realized the mutual coupling of each optical-fiber laser, export relevant synthetic laser by planoconvex spotlight plane semitransparent reflecting film at last, thereby realize the beam combination of light laser beam.Light path of the present invention is very simple, and optical element significantly reduces, need not be in addition with independent spatial filter, and can be used for the beam combination of a large amount of fiber laser beams, produce high power laser light.
The present invention is further illustrated below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment.

Embodiment
See also Fig. 1 earlier, Fig. 1 is used for the optical fiber laser group beam laser structural representation for the present invention.As seen from the figure, optical fiber laser group beam laser of the present invention, its formation comprises many doubly clad optical fibers 2, one end of every doubly clad optical fiber 2 connects a pump laser 1, after it is characterized in that the other end 21 removal surrounding layers of described many doubly clad optical fibers 2, closely be arranged in to linear array and form a smooth fiber array output end face 22 in the fiber clamp 3 and place ends in the resonant cavity box 5, the other end of resonant cavity box 5 is provided with a planoconvex spotlight 4, the convex surface plating anti-reflection film 41 of this planoconvex spotlight 4, and plane plating semitransparent reflecting film 42 is outside this resonant cavity box 5, form resonant cavity between the semitransparent reflecting film 42 of described fiber array output end face 22 and planoconvex spotlight 4, described fiber array output end face 22 is D to the distance of semitransparent reflecting film 42, distance between the fibre core 24 of described fiber array output end face 22 is d, the focal length of described planoconvex spotlight 4 is F, and then D and d satisfy the following relationship formula: d 2 = λ 2 F With D = F 2 .
Inner cladding 23 cross-sectional profile of the doubly clad optical fiber 2 described in the present embodiment are the closed shapes of double-H groove weld, and as shown in Figure 2, described pump laser (1) is a semiconductor laser diode.
Its course of work is as follows: send pump light by semiconductor laser 1 and enter doubly clad optical fiber 2, the laser that produces in doped core 24 is through 22 outputs of fiber-optic output face, the array laser of output projects planoconvex spotlight 4, become feedback by semitransparent reflecting film 42 reflections then, behind planoconvex spotlight 4, arrive fiber-optic output face 22 once more and just in time finish Fourier transform one time, realize the relevant coupling of laser in the different fiber, thereby the output of whole system just can obtain relevant output.
Be a specific embodiment below:
With three semiconductor lasers and three doubly clad optical fibers, its length is 25m, constitutes fiber laser.The laser center wavelength that these three fiber lasers produce is 1080nm trickle fluctuation about 10nm, so we are designed to 1080nm with whole system operation optical maser wavelength, fiber clamp is long to be 2cm, so we remove the surrounding layer of three doubly clad optical fiber front end 2cm length, the closed shape of the double-H groove weld of doubly clad optical fiber inner cladding cross section, distance between two parallel lines is 350 μ m, fibre core is in the inner cladding middle, diameter 10 μ m, fix after fiber clamp 3 linear arrays are closely arranged well according to shown in Figure 2 three optical fiber are put into, the distance that adjacent fibre core is 24 is 350 μ m, and the end of three optical fiber polishes and all is in a plane, and this plane is exactly a fiber-optic output face 22.According to formula d 2 = λ 2 F , We have designed at operation wavelength is the planoconvex spotlight of 1080nm, focal length F=22.685cm, the long D=11.3425cm in chamber, on the convex surface of planoconvex spotlight, plate the anti-reflection film of coupling λ=1080nm then, plating is at the semitransparent reflecting film of λ=1080nm on the plane of planoconvex spotlight, and its transmitance is 40%.Fiber-optic output 22 and planoconvex spotlight are pressed adjusting light path shown in Figure 1, make the distance D=11.3425cm of light output end face 22 to the planoconvex spotlight plane, the central optical axis of middle fibre core 24 of fiber-optic output and planoconvex spotlight point-blank simultaneously.When whole system is worked like this, can output wavelength be the coherent laser of 1080nm just.
