Abstract

Application of a modular coaxial package design, compatible with telecommunication passive component packaging, to microchip lasers, in particular to passively Q-switched microlasers, pumped with a fiber-coupled diode, is disclosed. The number of parts is thereby reduced while providing the adequate degrees of freedom for the active or passive alignment of the optical elements within the package.
