Abstract

The spatial structure of the emission of broad-area vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) attracted considerable interest during the last years from both an application and a fundamental viewpoint (e.g. Ref. 1). Their cavity design corresponds rather closely to the assumptions of the single longitudinal mode, uniform field model of a high Finesse piano-planar resonator, which is commonly used in theoretical studies of optical pattern formation in lasers (e.g. Ref. 2). These model predict the emission of a plane traveling off-axis wave (‘tilted wave’) at the first laser threshold.
