DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the following will be a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0026] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0027] It should be noted that: similar reference numbers and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.
[0028] As Figure 1 shown in the prior art multi-laser fiber 30 coupling, the polarization beam combining method is generally two rows of light paths against each other, coupled to a fiber 30. And the semiconductor laser module 100 provided by the present application mainly has the following advantages: Figures 2-5 1) from the coupling effect, the integration of multiple rows of chips 10 can be realized, the optical path is shortened, and the problem of large optical path difference between the farthest chip 10 and the nearest chip 10 caused by too many chips 10 arranged in each row is solved. The longer the optical path of the farthest chip 10, the lower the output light brightness, and the high temperature problem of the output fiber 30 fusion is easy to produce. The coupling of the semiconductor laser module 100 provided by the following embodiments of the present application and Figures 2-5 the exit light brightness of the semiconductor laser module 100 coupled into the fiber 30 is higher, and the beam quality is better (as Figure 7The figure is a spot arrangement schematic diagram of the semiconductor laser module 100 provided by one embodiment of the application. It can be seen from the figure that the spot arrangement is neat, the light brightness is high, and the beam quality is good. 2) From the cost point of view, the multi-row chip 10 beam combination does not need polarization beam combination, and the cost of the transmission film and the reflection film is lower. At the same time, the coupling efficiency is higher than that of the polarization beam combination. The multiple chips 10 are arranged more compactly, thereby reducing the cost of the copper heat sink. 3) From the heat dissipation point of view, the chips 10 are arranged alternately and staggered, the distance between the adjacent chips 10 is far, the heat dissipation space is larger, and the heat dissipation effect is better.
[0029] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the application provides a semiconductor laser module 100, comprising: multiple rows of chips 10 and an optical shaping assembly 20. The multiple rows of chips 10 are arranged at intervals along a first direction, and each row of chips 10 comprises multiple chips 10. As Figure 2 , three rows of chips 10 are shown, and each row comprises seven chips 10.
[0030] Each row of chips 10 is arranged at intervals in a second direction and in a stepped arrangement in a third direction. The chips 10 in different rows are arranged staggered in an out-light direction. The third direction is perpendicular to the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction. The third direction is the height direction of the chip 10, that is, the fast axis direction of the chip 10. In the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction, the out-light direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The second direction is the slow axis direction of the chip 10, and the third direction is the fast axis direction of the chip 10. The angle between the first direction and the second direction is less than or equal to 90°. When the angle between the first direction and the second direction is 90°, the first direction is the same as the out-light direction.
[0031] The optical shaping assembly 20 comprises a spatial beam combination component 23. The spatial beam combination component 23 comprises multiple transmission beam combination components 231. The transmission beam combination component 231 forms a transmission beam from the light beams emitted by the row of chips 10 corresponding to the transmission beam combination component 231. Specifically, one transmission beam combination component 231 is corresponding to one row of chips 10, that is, one transmission beam combination component 231 is used to form a transmission beam from the light beams emitted by one row of chips 10 (one row of chips 10 may be five, six, seven, eight, nine or other number). The light beams emitted by the multiple rows of chips 10 are combined in the second direction. In some embodiments, the light emitted by all rows of chips 10 needs to be combined after being transmitted by the corresponding transmission beam combination component 231. In other embodiments, the light emitted by one row of chips 10 does not pass through the transmission beam combination component 231. The light emitted by the other rows of chips 10 needs to be combined after being transmitted by the corresponding transmission beam combination component 231 and the light emitted without passing through the transmission beam combination component 231.
[0032] In the embodiment, the semiconductor laser module 100 is applied to laser spatial beam combination. The multiple rows of chips 10 are arranged in the first direction with intervals. The chips 10 in each row are arranged in the second direction with intervals and are arranged in the third direction in a stepped manner. The chips 10 in different rows are arranged staggered in the light emitting direction. The transmission beam combination component 231 forms a transmission beam from the light beams emitted by the chips 10 arranged correspondingly. The light beams emitted by the multiple rows of chips 10 are combined in the second direction. The inclination angle and the specific structural size of the transmission beam combination component 231 can be flexibly adjusted. The light beams emitted by the multiple rows of chips 10 are all or partially arranged in a spot by the transmission beam combination component 231, combined in the second direction, and then coupled into the optical fiber 30 by the focusing mirror. In the embodiment, the optical shaping assembly 20 of the semiconductor laser module 100 includes the spatial beam combination component 23, and the spatial beam combination component 23 includes multiple transmission beam combination components 231. Each transmission beam combination component 231 is used to form a transmission beam from the light beams emitted by the chips 10 arranged correspondingly, so as to reduce the coupling loss and improve the photoelectric efficiency. The semiconductor laser module 100 can be used for beam combination of multiple rows of light beams, and the manufacturing cost of the transmission beam combination component 231 is relatively low.
[0033] In one embodiment, the multiple chips 10 are arranged in m rows in the first direction with intervals, and each row includes n chips 10. m and n are both positive integers. Each transmission beam combination component 231 includes n transmission grating light guide plates 231a arranged with intervals. The light beams emitted by the n chips 10 in each row are formed into transmission beams by the n transmission grating light guide plates 231a, respectively. The transmission beams formed by the m rows of chips 10 are combined in the second direction.
[0034] In the embodiment, on one hand, each transmission grating light guide plate 231a independently processes the light beams emitted by the corresponding single chip 10. The n independent transmission grating light guide plates 231a can perform precise shaping on the n light beams in parallel and without interference. For example, each transmission grating light guide plate 231a can also be internally provided with a micro-optical structure (such as a microlens array) to perform collimation, beam expansion, astigmatism correction, etc. on the light beams, so as to lay a solid foundation for subsequent high-quality beam combination.
[0035] In another aspect: In the single row of chips 10, the optical axes of the n transmissive grating light guide plates 231a on the same transmissive beam combining component 231 can be easily and precisely aligned with each other by precise mechanical adjustment, so that the n light beams output by them achieve high parallelism and pointing consistency, which is equivalent to completing the parallelization of the light beams in the "one-dimensional" direction first. In the multi-row of chips 10, the light beams output by each row of chips 10 become highly parallel light beam arrays after passing through the corresponding transmissive beam combining component 231, and only need to be simply and precisely deflected in the second direction (which can be realized by a tilted surface of the transmissive beam combining component 231 itself, or by a subsequent optical element) to make the m parallel light beam arrays precisely and precisely superimposed and combined in the second direction.
[0036] In another aspect of the embodiment, the transmissive grating light guide plates 231a arranged at intervals provide a physical heat dissipation channel, avoiding the concentration and mutual interference of heat.
[0037] In one embodiment, m is a positive integer greater than 2, and n is a positive integer. The spatial beam combining component 23 includes (m-1) transmissive beam combining components 231. m can be equal to 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.
[0038] When m is an odd number (m is an odd number greater than 2), the light emitted by the (m+1) / 2 row of chips 10 is directly emitted without passing through any transmissive beam combining component 231. The light emitted by each of the remaining (m-1) rows of chips 10 passes through one of the (m-1) transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The light emitted by the (m+1) / 2 row of chips 10 and the (m-1) transmissive light beams are all combined in the direction of the light emitted by the (m+1) / 2 row of chips 10. Please refer to Figure 4 , m=3, the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 is directly emitted without passing through any transmissive beam combining component 231. The light emitted by each of the remaining two rows (the first row and the third row) of chips 10 passes through one of the two transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The light emitted by the second row of chips 10 and the two transmissive light beams of the first row and the third row are all combined in the direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10.
[0039] When m is even (m is an even number greater than 2), the light emitted by the m / 2th row of chips 10 is emitted directly without passing through any of the transmissive beam combining components 231. The light emitted by each of the remaining (m-1) rows of chips 10 passes through one of the (m-1) transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The light emitted by the m / 2th row of chips 10 and the (m-1) transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the m / 2th row of chips 10, or the light emitted by the m / 2+1th row of chips 10 and the (m-1) transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the m / 2+1th row of chips 10. Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 m = 4, the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 is emitted directly without passing through any of the transmissive beam combining components 231. The light emitted by each of the remaining three rows of chips 10 passes through one of the three transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The light emitted by the second row of chips 10 and the three transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 (the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 and the three transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10, or the light emitted by the third row of chips 10 and the three transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the third row of chips 10). Figure 5 and Figure 6 at the direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10). The direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 refers to the direction of the light emitted by the second row of chips 10 and shaped by the optical shaping component 20. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the light emitted by the third row of chips 10 and the three transmissive light beams are all combined at the direction of the light emitted by the third row of chips 10.
[0040] In this embodiment, m is a positive integer greater than 2. When m is odd, for example: 3, 5, 7 or other odd numbers, the beams are combined to the middle row. When m is even, for example: 4, 6, 8 or other even numbers, the beams are combined to one of the middle rows.
[0041] In one embodiment, m is a positive integer greater than 1, and n is a positive integer. The spatial beam combining component 23 includes m transmissive beam combining components 231. m can be equal to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.
[0042] When m is odd, the light emitted by each of the m rows of chips 10 passes through one of the m transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The m transmissive light beams are all combined at the position of the (m+1) / 2th row of chips 10. In one embodiment, m = 5, the light emitted by each of the five rows of chips 10 passes through one of the five transmissive beam combining components 231 to form a transmissive light beam. The five transmissive light beams are all combined at the position of the third row of chips 10 (not shown in the figure).
[0043] When m is an even number, the light emitted from each row of chips 10 in the m rows of chips 10 passes through one of the m transmission beam combining components 231 to form a transmitted beam. The m transmitted beams converge at the midpoint between the m / 2th and m / 2+1th rows. This midpoint can be the very center of the m / 2th and m / 2+1th rows, or a position closer to one of the rows. In one embodiment, m=6, the light emitted from each row of chips 10 in the six rows of chips 10 passes through one of the six transmission beam combining components 231 to form a transmitted beam. The six transmitted beams converge at the midpoint between the third and fourth rows (not shown).
[0044] In this embodiment, m is a positive integer greater than 1. When m is an odd number, such as 3, 5, 7 or other odd numbers, the bundle is placed in the middle row, or in any position between rows. When m is an even number, such as 2, 4, 6, 8 or other even numbers, the bundle is placed in the middle position between the m / 2th row and the m / 2+1th row.
[0045] In one embodiment, the optical shaping component 20 includes a collimating lens 21, a first reflecting mirror 22, and a focusing lens 25 arranged sequentially along the light propagation path of the chip 10, and a spatial beam-combining component 23 disposed between the first reflecting mirror 22 and the focusing lens 25.
[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, the collimating lens 21 includes a fast-axis collimating lens 21a and a slow-axis collimating lens 21b. The focusing lens 25 includes a first focusing lens 25a and a second focusing lens 25b. Through the synergistic effect of multiple lenses, collimation and focusing operations on light can be performed more precisely, further optimizing the light transmission quality and ensuring that light maintains good beam characteristics during propagation, thus meeting the requirements of high-precision light transmission.
[0047] The number of collimating lenses 21 and the number of first reflecting mirrors 22 are equal to the number of chips 10.

The requirement for the refractive path of the light beams on both sides of the transmissive combining component 231 is limited by 2*f2*tanθ2≤h1≤(m*H1-2*f2*tanθ2) / (m-1), that is, the path of the collimated light beams on both sides is wider than the collimated light beam passing through it, and space is left for the middle collimated light beam.
