Abstract
A system includes at least one controller configured to determine an optical phase modulation pattern for suppression of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a combined beam that emerges off a diffractive grating in a spectral beam combining (SBC) system and maximization of an output power of the combined beam. The system also includes multiple master oscillators configured to generate multiple beams in the SBC system. The system also includes multiple phase modulators configured to phase modulate the multiple beams according to the determined optical phase modulation pattern. The system also includes multiple fiber amplifier chains configured to receive the phase modulated beams and output the beams from the master oscillators to multiple delivery fibers for subsequent combining into the combined beam at the diffractive grating.
