Abstract:
A laser device for generating an optical wave including at least two frequencies, such laser device including: a first element including a gain region, a second mirror, distinct from the first element, and arranged so as to form with a first mirror an optical cavity including the gain region; means for pumping the gain region so as to generate the optical wave; means for shaping the light intensity of the optical wave arranged for selecting at least two transverse modes of the optical wave; and means for shaping the longitudinal and/or transversal phase profile of the optical wave and arranged for adjusting at least two transverse modes of the optical wave.
