ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for forming a monolithic surface emitting laser diode array by providing vertical partly light transmissive mirror surfaces opposite parabolic light reflective mirror surfaces formed adjacent the active buried layer of a heterostructure diode laser. The mirror surfaces are preferably formed using a mass-transport heating process. Other mirror shapes may be formed in accordance with the invention.
