  • Abstract
    Stable fundamental transverse and single longitudinal mode CW behaviour is demonstrated using a Gaussian channel substrate planar waveguide laser. Highly reliable performance including low threshold current, extremely low spontaneous background level and high-power CW operation has been achieved. In addition, the longitudinal mode has a locking range of 7.8°C, where the wavelength changes at a rate of 0.6 Å/°C.
