Abstract
We study the far field characteristics of oval-resonator laser diodes made of an AlGaAs/GaAs quantum well. The resonator shapes are various oval geometries, thereby probing chaotic and mixed classical dynamics. The far field pattern shows a pronounced fine structure that strongly depends on the cavity shape. Comparing the experimental data with ray-model simulations for a Fresnel billiard yields convincing agreement for all geometries and reveals the importance of the underlying classical phase space for the lasing characteristics.
