Abstract
A carrier for a laser diode bar comprises a generally rectangularly shaped block formed from a dielectric material having a high thermal conductivity. The block includes a stepped recess formed therein having a height essentially equal to one half the height of a laser diode bar to be mounted thereon. An assembly for mounting a laser diode bar comprises a pair of carriers in contact with one another and oriented such that their stepped recesses are in facing relationship to one another. A laser diode bar is positioned between the carriers in the space left by their combined stepped recesses. A plurality of assemblies may be placed in contact with or separated from one another.
