Abstract

The present invention relates to an optically pumped vertical external-cavity surface-emitting laser device comprising at least one VECSEL () and several pump laser diodes (). The pump laser diodes () are arranged to optically pump the active region () of the VECSEL () by reflection of pump radiation () at a mirror element (). The mirror element () is arranged on the optical axis () of the VECSEL () and is designed to concentrate the pump radiation () in the active region () and to form at the same time the external mirror of the VECSEL (). The proposed device avoids time consuming adjustment of the pump lasers relative to the active region of the VECSEL and allows a very compact design of the laser device.
