A record output power of 16.1 W with a direct‐bonded dual‐SiC‐heatspreader distributed Bragg reflector (DBR)‐free active region at 10.5°C coolant temperature is reported. A comparison in laser performance confirms the dual‐heatspreader DBR‐free configuration dissipates heat more effectively than the single‐heatspreader geometry.
