Abstract

A surface-emitting semiconductor laser system contains at least one MQW unit of at least three constituent QWs, separated along the optical axis by a sub-wavelength distance. The MQW unit is located within the axial extent covered, in operation of the laser, by a half-cycle of the standing wave of the field at a wavelength within the gain spectrum of the gain medium; immediately neighboring nodes of the standing wave are on opposite sides of the MQW unit. So-configured MQW unit can be repeated multiple times and/or complemented with individual QWs disposed outside of the half-cycle of the standing wave with which such MQW unit is associated. The semiconductor laser further includes a pump source configured to input energy in the semiconductor gain medium and a mode-locking element to initiate mode-locking.
