Abstract
A diode-laser assembly having an electrically isolated diode-laser bar on a cooled base-element is disclosed. The diode-laser bar is electrically isolated from the base-element and electrically isolated from any coolant water, thereby eliminating the need for de-ionized water and mitigating corrosion due to galvanic action. Multiple such diode-laser assemblies are stackable, with small bar-to-bar pitch, enabling a high-current and high-brightness diode-laser stack.
