However, the fiber output power if often limited below a power damage threshold. Coherent laser beam combining (CLBC) brings a solution to these limitations by identifying the most efficient architectures and allowing for excellent spectral and spatial quality. This knowledge will become critical for the design of the next generation high-power lasers and is of major interest to many industrial, environme 606 $aNonlinear optics 606 $aLaser beams 615 0$aNonlinear optics. 615 0$aLaser beams. 676 $a539.7 701 $aBrignon$b Arnaud$01601153 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819421703321 996 $aCoherent laser beam combining$93924626 997 $aUNINA
