Abstract

A wavelength converting laser device includes a laser diode producing laser light and including an optical resonator having a pair of facing reflectors, including a reflecting surface having a shape reducing loss in the optical resonator, with regard to a specific horizontal transverse mode of laser light as compared to the loss in the optical resonator for other horizontal transverse modes, and a wavelength converter for converting the laser light into harmonic light.
