Abstract
A configuration is provided with a laser mediumof a refractive index nc that is an isotropic medium and includes an upper surface and a lower surface, where at least one of the upper surface and the lower surface is bonded with a claddinghaving a refractive index satisfying a relationship of no<nc<ne or ne<nc<no. This allows selective output of only polarized light generated by a refractive index in the claddingsmaller than the refractive index nc at a desired wavelength (e.g. 1535 nm) which can be implemented by using the isotropic medium.
