technical field [0001] The invention relates to an epitaxial material structure of a high-power semiconductor laser, in particular to an epitaxial material structure of a high-power semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 885nm that can improve the pumping efficiency of an all-solid-state laser and has a very low beam vertical divergence angle. Background technique [0002] High-power semiconductor lasers have the advantages of high electro-optical efficiency, small size, light weight and long life, so they have important applications in the fields of industry, military, aviation, medical treatment and space communication. Especially in recent years, high-power semiconductor lasers with a wavelength range of 800nm-980nm and their arrays have become necessary pumping sources for high-energy solid-state lasers and fiber lasers. [0003] For all-solid-state lasers, the main limitation of high power and high beam quality comes from the huge useless heat generated during the pum...
