Control of the polarization of heterolaser radiation by uniaxial compression

P. G. Eliseev, A. I. Krasil'nikov, A. V. Khaidarov, G. G. Kharisov

Abstract: An investigation was made of the influence of uniaxial compression on the polarization of the radiation emitted by a double-sided heterostructure laser pumped with a current which exceeded the threshold by a factor of 3. The degree of polarization was in excess of 0.8. The pressure which altered the polarization to the perpendicular direction was determined.
