  • Method of fabricating Q-switched microlasers
    Patent number: 6566152
    Abstract: A Q-switched microlaser is provided that is capable of supporting a zig-zag resonation pattern in response to side pumping of the active gain medium so as to effectively lengthen the microresonator cavity without having to physically lengthen the microresonator cavity. As such, the microlaser can generate pulses having greater pulse widths and correspondingly greater pulse energies and average power levels than the pulses provided by conventional microlasers of a similar size. corresponding fabrication method is also provided according to one embodiment of the present invention that permits a plurality of side pumped Q-switched microlasers to be fabricated in an efficient and repeatable manner.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 19, 2002
    Date of Patent: May 20, 2003
    Assignee: Litton Systems, Inc.
