Abstract: Apparatus and method for producing coherent blue-green-light radiation having a wavelength of essentially 490-500 nm. A diode laser (10), such as a strained-layer InGaAs/GaAs diode laser, provides a 980-1,000 nm beam (12), and a nonlinear crystal (19) of KTP (KTiOPO4) produces coherent radiation (22) by noncritically phase-matched second-harmonic generation (SHG) of said beam. The beam preferably has a wavelength of essentially 994 nm for generating radiation having a wavelength of essentially 497 nm. The crystal is disposed within an optical resonator (18) and the frequency of the laser is locked to that of the resonator. Alternatively, two diode lasers (10,11) are oriented to provide orthogonally polarized beams each with a wavelength of 980-1,000 nm but within essentially 1 nm of each other, and the KTP crystal is oriented with its a and c axes parallel to the orthogonally polarized beams. The KTP crystal may have an associated optical waveguide along which the beam is propagated to enhance SHG efficiency.

Abstract: Optoelectronic voltage-controlled modulator for the external modulation of a light beam comprises: semiconductor substrate (31); reflector (33) comprising an epitaxial layered structure; and an absorber (34) comprising an epitaxial structure grown on the reflector, such that the intensity of the beam (L) passing through the absorber before and after being reflected can be modulated by means of electric control signals applied to contacts (37,39) connecting to the modulator structure.

Abstract: A process for the selective growth of GaAs on a patterned substrate for use in semiconductor laser diode prodn. comprises embedding the active quantum well (QW) of a ridge GaAs QW laser in the higher bandgap material by selective growth of the QW on the horizontal facet of the ridge structure, leaving the sidewall facets of the ridge exposed to the defintion of the higher bandgap cladding layers. The cladding layers pref. provide for both lateral carrier and current confinement.
