Abstract
A gain clamped optical device includes a semiconductor stack and a resonant cavity configured to emit stimulated light. A window created in the optical device is configured to emit the stimulated light in an LED mode.
Claims20
A gain clamped optical device comprising:
- a semiconductor stack;
- a resonant cavity configured to stimulate light;
- and
- a window configured to emit the stimulated light in a light emitting diode (LED) mode.
1 more element
A gain-clamped optical device comprising:
- a laser structure configured to generate and emit stimulated light into an LED structure, wherein the laser structure comprises a resonant cavity;
- and
- the LED structure in connection with the laser structure, wherein the LED structure comprises a window and, wherein the LED structure is configured to receive the stimulated light emitted from the laser structure and emit stimulated light through the window in an LED mode.
A method of emitting LED mode light from a gain clamped optical device comprising:
- stimulating light in a resonant cavity;
- and
- emitting the LED mode light through a window formed in the gain clamped optical device.
