Problems solved by technology

The heat dissipation of the SDL can be partially improved by etching the substrate of the semiconductor gain sheet, but this technology has extremely high requirements on the process, because in this technology, the semiconductor gain medium is grown in reverse order, and the final etching surface is the light output surface, the finish must be very good, otherwise it will cause excessive scattering loss due to the rough surface, resulting in too high threshold and low efficiency of the laser, or even no light output at all.
