Abstract
A laser beam apparatus can include a set of pulsed lasers (e.g. solid state fiber lasers), a controllable beam deflector, and an electric power supply and controller connected to the beam deflector. The laser pulses from the different pulsed lasers can be configured to hit the beam deflector at different angles and different times. The electric power supply and controller can be configured to control and synchronize the timing and angle at which the different lasers pulses hit the beam deflector with an adjustment of the deflection property of the beam deflector so that the laser pulses from different input directions propagate in the same direction after passing through the beam deflector. The laser pulses from the lasers can be combined together via this control and synchronization.
