A laser diode array (102) comprising a plurality of laser diodes (201-210) and a channel (212) proximate to each of the laser diodes (201-210), the channel (212) configured to receive and provide a passage for a flow of a fluid coolant; wherein the laser diodes (201-210) are configured to emit electromagnetic radiation having the same centre wavelength at different respective junction temperatures. A coolant supply system (104) coupled to the laser diode array (102) may cause coolant to flow through the channel (212). A flow rate of the coolant through the channel (212) may be controlled based on temperature measurements of the coolant prior to entering, within, and/or after exiting the laser diode array (102).
