Recent progress of key technologies for spectral beam combining of fiber laser with dual-gratings configuration(Invited)

A spectral beam combination(SBC) system with dual Multi-Layer Dielectric(MLD) grating dispersion compensation configuration, which can combine multiple fiber lasers into a common aperture beam with high beam quality and relax the linewidth requirement of the individual fiber laser, has become gradually one of the most important technique route of fiber laser beam combining. The basic principle and the key technologies of the SBC system with dual-MLD-grating configuration were introduced and analyzed briefly. The recent progress of the main key technologies about high power beam combinable narrow linewidth fiber laser, high power high efficiency short wavelength narrow linewidth fiber laser, large dispersion high efficiency MLD grating and high integration dense beam combining were reviewed. The recent progress on the key technologies of SBC with dual-MLD-configuration in Institute of Applied Electronics, China Academy of Engineering Physics, were also presented. The potential of the SBC with dual-MLD-configuration was prospected.
