    Coherent combining of laser arrays is an important technique in realizing high power high brightness laser system. The coherent combining of two orthogonal polarized lasers is achieved by using polarization phase locking technique. Experimental results show that this scheme can achieve above 90% combining efficiency even when the power of the two lasers is highly imbalanced. The combining method can be scaled to a large number of lasers.
