Fundamental Transverse Mode Selection (TMS#0) of Broad Area Semiconductor Lasers with Integrated Twice-Retracted 4f Set-Up and Film-Waveguide Lens

Figure 3

Current concept again: another sketch (now with oblique view) of a TMS#0-BAL with compact linear f long laser resonator (4f retracted twice) and spatial filter to support the fundamental transverse mode (#0). The dimensions are given and the waveguide lens (“wg. lens”) is depicted.
