Abstract
Highly reflecting Bragg mirrors in combination with 2GaLnAs/AlGaAs laser st ructures with two layers of self-organised GaInAS quantum-dots are used to realise CW-operating edge-emitting microlasers with cavity lengths down to 12 mum. Owing to the large spacing of the longitudinal modes of 8.2nm for 1 2 mum long lasers, quasi-singlemode operation is obtained.
