means by which to "generate coherent light in a very small package" (Diode Laser). Manufacturing has become much faster and simpler due in part to the fact that the
energy variance between valence band electrons and conduction is the primary device for laser action. The familiarity of an LED is similar to that of the diode laser, however,
one significant difference resides in the actual optical expenditure it is capable of outputting. Below is a diagram, called a homojunction, for a typical low power edge emitting laser
