ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for improving the performance of a microlaser. A laser material (110) is optically contacted to a nonlinear material (120), either directly or through an intermediate clear or undoped substrate (115), to form a microlaser assembly. Continuous pressure, either static or variable, is applied to the microlaser assembly in a direction perpendicular to the interface of the elements in the assembly.
