Abstract :
Modeling results for lateral-longitudinal mode discrimination in longitudinally inhomogeneous finite-length waveguides of ridge lasers are presented, obtained by numerical solutions of the wave equation and calculations of the mode thresholds, predicting high-brightness single-mode output of wide stripes.
