PT symmetric large area single mode DFB lasers

We propose a novel class of large-area single-mode semiconductor lasers in which notions from parity-time symmetry is employed to reliably suppress higher-order modes. The feasibility of our design is investigated in InGaAsP quantum-well arrangements.
