Abstract

A highly efficient intracavity coherent addition of nine individual laser distributions is presented. It is achieved with two passive interferometric combiners that are introduced into the combined laser cavity. The results reveal that the combined output power is greater by almost a factor of 9 compared to that of the single laser distributions, while the beam quality is the same.
