Phase-locked laser array

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5814225
This patent describes a phase-locked laser array including a body of semiconductor material having therein a cavity region and means for defining parallel lasing zones in the cavity region. The zones are spaced an effective distance apart so that the modes of oscillation in adjacent lasing zones are phase-locked to one another, and first and second electrodes on the body; the improvement wherein the first electrode comprises spaced apart electrically connected electrical contacts to the body over the regions between the lasing zones.
