Zusammenfassung:A laser assembly (10) for generating an output beam (12) includes: (i) a first laser (16) that generates a first laser beam (16A) having a first polarization state; (ii) a second laser (20) that generates a second laser beam (20A); (iii) a polarization beam combiner (24) that combines the first laser beam (16A) and the rotated second laser beam (20A) to form a combination beam (25); and (iv) an optical assembly (32) that expands and collimates the combination beam (25) to provide the output beam (12). The optical assembly (32) include an on-axis telescope plus a projection lens.
