FBH publication among HPL's top downloads

The publication "High duty cycle, highly efficient fiber coupled 940-nm pump module for high-energy solid-state lasers" published by René Platz, Bernd Eppich, Juliane Rieprich, Wolfgang Pittroff, Götz Erbert, and Paul Crump deals with tailored diode laser single emitters operating with 940 nm emission wavelength. The emitters were assembled in novel edge-cooled vertically stacked arrays, used to construct a compact and highly efficient fiber coupled pump source for Yb:YAG pulsed high-energy class solid-state lasers. The publication has been released in the journal "High Power Laser Science and Engineering", Vol. 4/2016 and ranks among HPL's top downloads (January - September); it is freely accessible.
