An historical perspective of laser diode arrays at McDonnell Douglas
Abstract
The history of solid state laser pump technology at McDonnell Douglas over the last decade is reviewed from concept, through development, and into fielded applications. Derivative technologies and applications that have resulted from the development of diode arrays at McDonnell Douglas are discussed.
