DILAS (Tuscon, AZ) has introduced the first commercially available high-power diode laser arrays operating at 1940nm with wall plug efficiencies (WPE) of >10-percent.

Based on a single diode laser array, the new conduction-cooled, fiber-coupled diode laser modules generate output power of 6W, 12W, and 18W using a standard 600μm fiber bundle with a numerical aperture of
