Abstract

A low optical loss and high efficiency grating is placed within a broad-area high-power laser diode or single spatial mode laser diode to narrow the spectral width and stabilize the emission wavelength. Several embodiments of grating configurations are presented, together with the measured results of a reduction to practice of a particular embodiment.
