Title: Elliot Michael Burke: Laser Technology Inventor
Introduction
Elliot Michael Burke is an inventor based in Santa Barbara, California. His work includes a patented approach to improving the collimation of laser light from diode bars affected by bar smile.
Latest Patents
Burke is associated with 1 patent, titled “Spectral-Based Correction of Laser Bar Smile.” The invention describes a laser light source with an array of semiconductor lasers mounted on a diode bar. It uses angular dispersion to direct different wavelengths in different directions and a partially reflective surface to return some light to the lasers, lowering the lasing threshold for those wavelengths. Other light passes through the surface to form an output with increased collimation despite the diode bar’s bar smile.
Career Highlights
Burke is associated with Freedom Photonics LLC. His patent reflects work on laser-source design and optical techniques for addressing imperfections in diode-bar alignment.
Collaborations
Burke’s listed coworker is Paul Orville Leisher. The available information identifies their professional association but does not specify a particular joint project.
Conclusion
Elliot Michael Burke’s patent on spectral-based correction of laser bar smile highlights an approach to producing a more collimated laser output from a diode bar.
