Abstract
We consider the production of a pair of like-sign charged Higgs bosons in e(-)e(-) collisions at the NLC within the context of several elect roweak models with extended symmetry breaking sectors. We find that th e rate for this process, which proceeds through W-W- fusion, is a very sensitive probe of the nature of these extended Higgs sectors and tha t the corresponding cross sections can vary by as much as several orde rs of magnitude at NLC energies.
