Abstract

La présente invention concerne un ensemble (31) laser comprenant une pluralité de dispositifs (30) laser éloignés les uns des autres. Un dispositif de rétroaction (40) de la lumière forme une cavité externe résonnante avec l'ensemble (31) laser. Un dispositif dispersif (36) est placé de manière qu'il reçoivent de la lumière provenant de l'ensemble (31) laser et qu'il transmette ou réfléchisse la lumière au dispositif de rétroaction (40). Un dispositif d'imagerie (32, 35) image des faisceaux (33) primaires provenant des dispositifs (30) laser au niveau du dispositif dispersif (36) pour former un diagramme de distribution d'intensité combiné comportant de multiples lobes (46A, 46B) combinés correspondant au multiples lobes des faisceaux (33) primaires individuels, chacun des faisceaux de lumière primaires contribuant à chacun des lobes de champ lointain combinés du diagramme de distribution d'intensité combiné par la lumière provenant d'un lobe de champ lointain correspondant de ce faisceau de lumière primaire. Chaque dispositif (30) laser émet une lumière laser à une fréquence différente, de sorte que sa lumière soit orientée par le dispositif dispersif (36) selon une orientation préférée du dispositif de rétroaction (40) de la lumière afin d'obtenir un maximum de rétroaction. Les faisceaux primaires sont combinés pour former au moins un faisceau (37) à rétroaction combiné renvoyé à l'ensemble (31) laser et au moins un faisceau de sortie (38) combiné quittant l'appareil, chacun des faisceaux combinés présentant une orientation axiale commune. Ce dispositif de rétroaction (40) de lumière permet d'obtenir un coefficient de réflexion à la lumière d'un lobe hors axe du diagramme de distribution d'intensité combiné différent de celui d'un autre lobe hors axe de ce diagramme.
