Abstract
Semiconductor disk lasers (SDLs), also referred to as vertical external cavity surface emitting lasers (VECSELs), offer an effective solution for combining high output power with high beam quality, from a power scalable semiconductor laser [1]. The first SDLs based on InAs/GaAs sub monolayer (SML) and InGaAs Stranski-Krastanow (SK) grown quantum dot (QD) gain material were recently demonstrated, with output power of 1.4 W and 0.3 W respectively [2,3]. Here, we report the first multi-Watt cw output from a QD SDL.
