Abstract
We present a version of the twin-channel laser with reduced dimensions. This version has improved yields of high-power lasers (Pmax ~ 120 mW at 50% duty cycle) with single-lobe far-field distributions. These far-field patterns exhibit almost no sidelobes, a fact that can be explained by the reduced dimensions.
