High-power edge-emitting lasers are efficient and indispensable light sources for a wide range of scientific and commercial applications such as pump sources for solid-state lasers, frequency conversion, material processing, and medicine. High-power edge-emitting photonic band crystal lasers emitting in the commercially important 1060 nm wavelength range are investigated. Highest to date single transverse mode output power of 1.9 W is obtained from ridge waveguide lasers with 9 µm ridge width and 2.64 mm cavity length. Extended vertical waveguides result in a very narrow vertical far-field divergence below 14∘ (full width at half maximum) across full single mode operating regime. The corresponding lateral beam divergence is 9∘. The lasers provide excellent beam quality with beam quality factor M2 below 1.9 up to 1.9 W output power. A brightness as high as 72 MWcm−2sr−1 is achieved. The measured astigmatism varies only from 5 µm to 14 µm over the entire operating range, which means almost astigmatism-free.
