Abstract

L'invention porte sur un appareil laser à semi-conducteurs qui peut uniformiser la répartition de chaleur dans un milieu laser pour supprimer la génération d'un effet de lentille thermique dans le milieu laser, ce qui permet de supprimer la dégradation de la qualité de faisceau de la lumière laser de sortie, sur un appareil d'acquisition d'informations de sujet comprenant l'appareil laser à semi-conducteurs et sur un réseau de lasers à émission de surface qui peut supprimer la génération d'un effet de lentille thermique pour supprimer la dégradation de la qualité de faisceau de la lumière laser de sortie d'un appareil laser à semi-conducteurs. L'appareil laser à semi-conducteurs comprend : un résonateur comprenant un coupleur de sortie; une partie de support comprenant un support laser en forme de plaque agencé dans le résonateur; et une partie de source d'excitation lumineuse comprenant un réseau de lasers à émission de surface. Dans l'appareil laser à semi-conducteurs, une partie électroluminescente de la partie de source d'excitation lumineuse est agencée de sorte à être en contact avec la partie de support.
