ABSTRACT:
An array of semiconductor lasers formed in a single substrate and having parallel waveguides that terminate in a wide diffraction region fabricated with the array structure. The diffraction region has a curved reflective surface selected to achieve a desired degree of coupling among the elements of the array, and to enhance and stabilize a preferred lateral mode of oscillation.
