A high peak power annularly-stacked laser diode pump has been designed and manufactured for a solid state laser (SSL), which is constructed by 12 single annular stacks composed of 3-bar laser diode (LD) submodules. High peak power and high wavelength uniformity have been considered. Macro channel cooling has been used during the operation of the annular stacks, at typical coolant flow rate of 2L/min. Heat dissipation and stress of a single annular stack have been simulated by finite element software, which shows high temperature uniformity of 3-bar submodules (+/- 0.5 degrees C) and low package stress (11.8MP). The peak power of the annularly stacked laser diode pump has reached 234kW at a peak current of 450A or less. A high uniformity of centroid wavelength (802.1nm) with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 4nm has been measured. More than 24 million shots have been verified for the 3-bar LD submodules.
