Abstract
A laser includes a distributed Bragg mirror and is configured to emit monochromatic light radiation along a longitudinal direction. The laser has layers, stacked along a first transverse direction normal to the longitudinal direction and made of III-V materials, including an active region configured to emit the radiation. The mirror is formed by periodic lateral corrugations which extend mainly along the longitudinal direction and having a dimension along a second transverse direction normal to the longitudinal direction. The lateral corrugations of the Bragg mirror extend from a top surface of the waveguide pattern along the first transverse direction on a height strictly less than the depth, at which the active region is located starting from the top surface, such that a portion of lateral flanks of the waveguide is free of any lateral corrugations at the active region.
