Abstract

The observation of coupling and consequent coherent operation of two adjacent parallel stripe-geometry GaAs lasers in a monolithic structure is reported. Coupling is obtained when the distance between the lasers is small enough to allow the optical field of one laser to penetrate into the active region of the other.
