Compact High-Power Direct Diode Laser with Diffraction-Limited Output

In the proposed effort, Corcoran Engineering, Inc. (CEI), the University of Rochester - Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE), and Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC) will design and  demonstrate the feasibility of developing a direct diode laser with 2 kW output power based on our patented FIRE technology.  Development of this compact laser source will enhance the performance of multiple DoD applications such as long range IRCM, laser communication, and any system that requires a compact laser with high power output and excellent beam quality.  This technology can be utilized to provide high power performance using a wide variety of laser systems at virtually any wavelength.
