Abstract

We present the MEXL, a novel type of vertically emitting semiconductor laser for biomedical applications. The core component of this laser system is the gain crystal based on a thin semiconductor membrane, which enables the fabrication of extremely compact laser modules. We discuss the current status of our MEXL developments and demonstrate multi-watt output powers in the visible spectral range.
