Laser diodes<br />

• power <strong>and</strong> spectrum measurement<br />

• far-field <strong>and</strong> near-field measurement<br />

• The M² factor : definition, measurement<br />

• Saturation of the power : cause <strong>and</strong> solution = the large optical cavity<br />

Main epitaxial structures : at 808 nm, 940 nm, 980 nm <strong>and</strong> 732 nm<br />

Examples of lasers diodes<br />

• Ridge <strong>and</strong> broad-area lasers at 980 nm<br />

• high brigthness lasers near at 980 nm<br />

• state of the art<br />

• external approach : four-wave mixing<br />

• internal approach : the tapered laser diode<br />

• Tapered lasers bars at 980 nm coupled into an optical fiber<br />

• Laser diodes at 732 nm : broad-area laser results <strong>and</strong> aging test<br />

• Application to photodynamic therapy of laser diodes at 732 nm<br />

• Application to surgery <strong>and</strong> dentistry of laser diodes at 980 nm
