The three-dimensional structure diagram of having showed single module among Fig. 3, the laser that luminescence chip group 1 is sent, be at quick shaft direction and disperse (as Fig. 1) about 70 °, slow-axis direction then is disperses (as Fig. 2) about 10 °, this light beam is too fast in space divergence, want coupled into optical fibres, must add necessary beam shaping system, so the utility model is earlier by the compression that collimates of 2 pairs of these beam fast axis of fast axis collimation mirror, sending laser at slow-axis direction by 3 pairs of three luminous points of slow axis collimation array then collimates one to one, behind the fast and slow axis beam shaping, light is collimated substantially, and no matter so nearly collimated ray still is that easier coupled into optical fibres is considered in the incident angle aspect from hot spot after by condenser lens 4.
Fig. 4 is the multimode perspective view.This structure is a plurality of single modules to be horizontal notch cuttype arrange, the light beam that each luminescence chip group 1 is sent is after fast axis collimation mirror 2 and slow axis collimation array 3 collimations, the catoptron 7 of 45 ° of placements by correspondence, realize the vertical stack of multi-beam, form a square hot spot, this hot spot passes through secondary slow axis collimating mirror (cylindrical mirror 8) again and second focus lamp 9 is realized optical fiber coupling output.
Alternative
1) the utility model is not only applicable to optical fiber coupling series products, can also be as the small light spot output light source.For example, behind the removal optical fiber, utilize this product can realize the beam divergence angle output of 3mm * 3mm hot spot or 20mrad * 20mrad.
2) the multimode fiber coupling module also can be taked the scheme of Fig. 5 except that the scheme that adopts Fig. 4, and promptly a plurality of single light emitting modules are vertical stepped arrangement.The laser that luminescence chip group 1 is sent compresses collimation after secondary slow axis collimating mirror 12 further collimates through fast axis collimation mirror 2 and slow axis collimation array 3 respectively, realize the further optimization of optical parameter product, finally be coupled into optical fiber output by the 3rd focus lamp 13.
3) collimation of the slow axis in the utility model array 3 also can replace with cylindrical mirror.
In sum, the utility model is different from the fiber coupling module product of prior art, and it is the product that develops on the basis of Mini Bar, and it need not light beam coupling to be advanced optical fiber through the optical system of complicated cutting, rotation, rearrangement.And because volume is small and exquisite, the utility model can be according to different customer demands, and multimode, the high-brightness semiconductor laser fiber coupling module of designing various versions come.Therefore application of the present utility model is more extensive.
The utility model all is between single tube class and the Bar bar series products from aspects such as output power, drive current, prices, has remedied back both deficiency, also is effectively to replenish to the market demand simultaneously, has vast market prospect.
