  • Patent number: 8824518
    Abstract: A the vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser includes a stripe-shaped active medium (10) having an emission maximum at a first wavelength (?1), wherein a first reflector (18) is arranged below the stripe-shaped active medium (10) and a second reflector (20) is arranged above the stripe-shaped active medium (10), with the first reflector (18) facing the second reflector (20), wherein the first reflector (18) and a second reflector (20) have a reflectivity maximum in the region of the first wavelength (?1), wherein a third reflector (12) and a fourth reflector (13) are each arranged on a side above or next to the stripe-shaped active medium (10), wherein the third reflector (12) faces the fourth reflector (13), and wherein the third reflector (12) and the fourth reflector (13) have a reflectivity maximum in the region of a second wavelength (?2), wherein the first wavelength (?1) is greater than the second wavelength (?2).
