Abstract

We provide results of the theoretical analysis of guided lateral mode in broad-area (BA) semiconductor lasers with modal reflectors formed by patterning the reflectivity of the front facet. The analysis has been performed by using a simple model based on the effective index method and the concept of the effective facet reflectivity. The numerical results include mode threshold conditions and far-field patterns of the lasing modes for various reflector configurations.
