Title :
Phase-locked injection laser arrays with nonuniform stripe spacing
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
A new type of phase-locked injection laser array which utilises nonuniform spacing between the lasing stripes has been studied. The variation in spacing alters the stripe-to-stripe coupling which modifies the array mode selection. Arrays that operate with a single far-field lobe have been fabricated.
