Abstract
A light-enhancing structure having an optical cavity defined by two Bragg reflectors that are substantially parallel to one another and two edge reflectors that are substantially parallel to one another. A light-emitting material is disposed within the optical cavity. The optical cavity is configured to enhance an incident pump radiation introduced into the optical cavity.
