Abstract
Incoherent beam combination consists of superposing several laser beams on a target. This technique is relatively simple to implement and uses "off-the-shelf" optical components, without active control of the phase or polarization of the input sources. With the Multi-plane Light Conversion (MPLC) technique, tailored and multi-reflective phase element, enabling to obtain an optimal beam quality in terms of divergence for a given number of input beams, we present non-coherent beam combiner of 4 Fibered high power input beams at 1µm with a total M² close to 2,5 and a combining efficiency around 92%.
