Abstract :
Theoretical analysis of complex-coupled, surface-emitting distributed feedback (CC-SE-DFB) diode lasers with distributed Bragg reflectors (DBR) is presented. These devices are shown to produce symmetric-mode (single-lobe) surface emission with high efficiency (34%) and uniform near-field
