Abstract :
Asymmetric far-field patterns emitted by symmetrically pumped twin-stripe lasers in crosscoupled-mode operation are analysed for the first time. The far field is always deflected to the side with higher carrier density, which is contrary to that of conventional far-field deflection of asymetrically pumped lasers.
