Abstract
An analysis is made of the factors influencing the degree of the spati al coherence gamma of miniature chip lasers with longitudinal semicond uctor-diode pumping. Estimates are obtained of the ultimate spatial co herence of the radiation emitted by such lasers. It is shown that the value of \1-gamma\ can reach 10(-7) in the limit set by the beam width .
