AlGaAs converters and arrays for laser power beaming [PDF]
This study reports on the development of AlGaAs/GaAs-based laser power photovoltaic (PV) converters fabricated by LPE. The monochromatic (λ = 809 nm) conversion efficiency up to 58% is measured for cells with p-n junction in Al0.07Ga0.93As and low (x = 0.25-0.3) Al concentration ‘window’.

High power diode lasers converted to the visible [PDF]
High power diode lasers have in recent years become available in many wavelength regions. However, some spectral regions are not well covered. In particular, the visible spectral range is lacking high power diode lasers with good spatial quality. In this paper, we highlight some of our recent results in nonlinear frequency conversion of high power near
