I guess it wouldn't be a cube beam splitter.... would it? I am combining the power of 2 diodes. Does anybody have one they can sell me?
Thanks!

Specifically, you need a *polarizing* beam splitting cube. I think Marconi has a few for sale. Might want to send him a PM.
However, you must also make sure that you mount the two laser diodes such that one beam is vertically polarized, while the other is horizontally polarized. Then you need to get the cube faces aligned to match.
Just wanted to be sure you knew what you were getting into. Also, watch out for back-reflections from the cube faces back into the laser diodes. You can kill a diode instantly if you're not careful.

Perfect! Thanks guys!
