Longitudinal and vertical emission laser integration with quasi-phase-matched harmonic layers

We review the progress in our physical understanding and modeling of integrated surface emitting harmonic generators and also present experimental results for the monolithic integration of active laser sources embedded with a quasi phased matched nonlinear heterostructure cavity for surface emission in the blue-green wavelength region.© (1994) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
