Photonic crystals(PCs) have attracted much considerable research attention in the past two decades. They are artificially fabricated periodic dielectric structures. The periodic dielectric structures have photonic ban...
An overview of the applications of semiconductor lasers is presented. Diode lasers are widely used today, and the most prevalent use of the laser is probably in CD and DVD drives for computers and audio/video media sy...
Surface-emitting semiconductor lasers can make use of external cavities and optical pumping techniques to achieve a combination of high continuous-wave output power and near-diffraction-limited beam quality that is no...
