Abstract
The invention relates to a semiconductor laser with a distributed reflector comprising a semiconductor junction, one of whose semi-transparent mirrors is a split face of the semiconductor in which is integrated a light emitting junction with epitaxial layers. The active layer of this junction is coupled to a waveguide integrated in a dielectric medium, on one face of which is engraved a grating forming a distributed reflector playing the part of the second mirror. The reflector, when functioning according the second order of counter coupling emits a diffracted wave normal to the waveguide which can easily be coupled to an optical fiber.
