Abstract
An optical apparatus comprises a semiconductor substrate, and a supermode filtering waveguide (SFW) emitter disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The SFW emitter comprises a first optical waveguide, a spacer layer, and a second optical waveguide spaced apart from the first optical waveguide by the spacer layer. The second optical waveguide is evanescently coupled with the first optical waveguide and is configured, in conjunction with the first waveguide, to selectively propagate only a first mode of a plurality of optical modes. The SFW emitter further comprises an optically active region disposed in one of the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide.
