Abstract
A multiplexing module implements receiving a plurality of laser pulses from a pulsed laser source via an input coupler element; splitting each laser pulse into a plurality of beamlets; introducing a delay between adjacent beamlets of the plurality of beamlets; and outputting a plurality of beamlets associated with each respective laser pulse via an output coupler element, wherein the input coupler and the output coupler are separate elements of the multiplexing module.
Claims20
A multiplexing module configured to perform operations of:
- receiving a plurality of laser pulses from a pulsed laser source via an input coupler element;
- splitting each laser pulse into a plurality of beamlets;
- introducing a delay between adjacent beamlets of the plurality of beamlets;
- and
- outputting a plurality of beamlets associated with each respective laser pulse via an output coupler element, wherein the input coupler and the output coupler are separate elements of the multiplexing module.
A method of operating a multiplexing module, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of laser pulses from a pulsed laser source via an input coupler element;
- splitting each laser pulse into a plurality of beamlets;
- introducing a delay between adjacent beamlets of the plurality of beamlets;
- and
- outputting a plurality of beamlets associated with each respective laser pulse via an output coupler element, wherein the input coupler and the output coupler are separate elements of the multiplexing module.
