A product includes an elongated carbon-containing pillar having a bottom and a tip opposite the bottom. The width of the pillar measured 1 nm below the tip is less than 700 nm. A method includes masking a carbon-containing single crystal for defining masked regions and unmasked regions on the single crystal. The method also includes performing a plasma etch for removing portions of the unmasked regions of the single crystal, thereby defining a pillar in each unmasked region, and performing a chemical etch on the pillars at a temperature between 1200° C. and 1600° C. for selectively reducing a width of each pillar.

The present disclosure relates to a laser diode system. The system may have at least one laser diode emitter having a substrate, at least one laser diode supported on the substrate, and a facet which a laser beam generated by the laser diode is emitted. A cooling subsystem is included which is disposed in contact with the substrate of the laser diode emitter. The cooling subsystem includes a plurality of cooling fins forming a plurality of elongated channels for circulating a cooling fluid therethrough to cool the laser diode emitter. The cooling fluid also flows over the facet of the laser diode emitter.
