311. | Discovery viewed as breakthrough in miniature lasers The Huntsville Times - November 29, 1993 Northwestern University researchers say they have discovers a way to make high-powered lasers on a computer chip, a breakthrough that should lead to a new generation of miniature lasers. Previously, the only method for producing the lasers on a chip had involved the use of AlGaAs, But the use of aluminum content led to defects in the original construction and sudden failures in operation. ...
