Abstract To address the challenge of achieving stable in-phase coherent optical field in high-power laser arrays, we propose a novel dual Talbot diffraction coupling method that combines the on-chip self-injection effect with a mixed-resonant cavity diode laser array (MDLA). The designed MDLA incorporates two types of resonant cavities and an integrated external fractional Talbot cavity to compensate for in-phase mode phase delays. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the near-field optical pattern can be self-imaged via self-organized phase-locking, while the far-field optical pattern of in-phase mode can be coherently enhanced and modulated to exhibit a single-lobe pattern successfully. Furthermore, this method could inherently provide strong optical coupling and overcome the limited scalability of the weakly-coupled laser arrays. Ultimately, by leveraging self-organized phase-locking and Talbot-induced mode discrimination, our approach offers a robust platform for realizing high-power coherent laser sources with scalable integration potential.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
