Abstract
Photorefractive BaTiO3:Ce was used to combine coherently a signal beam and two amplified pump beams at nm. The master laser beam was split and then amplified in two semiconductor laser amplifiers with gain of as much as 6. The amplifiers were made from quantum-well laser chips by use of antireflection coating. 40% of the power could be transferred to the signal beam without transferring the phase distortions of the pump beams.
