In the HOTSTACK project, coordinated by Trumpf GmbH, we are addressing this need through research into significantly improved diode laser and assembly technologies. We will realize two types of high-power diode laser stacks, as research prototypes. This is because diode laser modules are required in large. SCHRAMBERG, Germany, Nov. 1, 2024 — The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) has launched Project DioHELIOS, part of its Fusion 2040 – Research on the Way to the Fusion Power Plant funding initiative. The three-year joint project, funded with €17. 3 million (~$19 million), aims. These systems produce ultrashort optical pulses with energies in the megawatt to petawatt range, that are used to generate a wide variety of forms of radiation. 2 billion euros over the next five years into the development of this climate-neutral, intrinsically safe and almost unlimited energy source.
