Multi-spectral laser array and optical system

摘要

An organic vertical cavity laser light producing device ( 10 ) comprises a substrate ( 20 ). A plurality of laser emitters ( 200 ) emits laser light in a direction orthogonal to the substrate. Each laser emitter within the plurality of laser emitters has a first lateral mode structure in a first axis orthogonal to the laser light direction and has a second lateral mode structure in a second axis orthogonal to both the laser light direction and the first axis. Each laser emitter comprises a first mirror provided on a top surface of the substrate ( 20 ) and is reflective to light over a predetermined range of wavelengths. An organic active region ( 40 ) produces laser light ( 350 ). A second mirror is provided above the organic active region and is reflective to light over a predetermined range of wavelengths. A pumping means excites the plurality of laser emitters.
