hey i am a total newbie and a beginner in science well i want to know if the following can be done:-![Stick Out Tongue :-p :-p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
i have a number of laser diodes form dvd drives...
is there a possible or a certain arrangement of prisms , lenses and mirrors that can be made in order to combine numerous less intense LASER beams to make a single beam that is a lot stronger with minimal energy loss?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
a single laser diode is good enough to pop balloons , burn paper
i am just curious to know how much damage a laser beam combined from many diodes can do...![Devil :devil: :devil:](https://www.physicsforums.com/styles/physicsforums/xenforo/smilies/oldschool/devil.gif)
