Abstract

This application discloses a laser beam combining system, including multiple wavelength-locked laser units, a beam compression unit, and a beam combining unit. The multiple wavelength-locked laser units can generate multiple parallel light bands, each containing multiple wavelength-locked and parallel beams. The beam compression unit includes multiple compression mirrors and a Galilean beam expander module. The compression mirrors reflect the light bands from the wavelength-locked laser units to the Galilean beam expander module, which compresses the spacing between the parallel beams. The beam combining unit is located downstream of the Galilean beam expander module and combines the multiple parallel beams for output. After the Galilean beam expander module compresses the spacing between the beams, the beams enter the beam combining unit and are combined into a high-power, high-brightness laser beam under the action of the beam combining unit. This eliminates the need for multiple fiber couplings and fiber fusion splices, thus reducing the number of optical components, lowering the assembly and adjustment complexity, reducing the size of the laser beam combining system, and reducing optical power loss.
