ABSTRACT:
A linear array of multimode laser diodes in a single wafer having a ratio of approximately one emitting stripe width to each non-emitting stripe isolation region width exhibits transverse lasing in a direction perpendicular to the normal laser output at input currents above a pre-determined transverse lasing threshold. Above the transverse lasing threshold, normal lasing is rapidly quenched.
