    Abstract: A PWM controlled current source includes a selection input, a modulation input, a switchable current source which can be switched by means of a signal at a control terminal and whose current output is configured for connection to a load, and an inverter circuit including an input node and an output coupled to the control terminal. The inverter circuit has a capacitance conditioned by elements of the inverter circuit. A start signal can be supplied to the input node in dependence on a selection signal at the selection input, which controls the switchable current source via the inverter circuit. The PWM controlled current source also includes a voltage-to-current converter that generates a current derived from a modulation signal at the modulation input and supplies it to the input node. The supplied current disconnects the switchable current source after a time period predetermined by the conditioned capacitance.

    Abstract: A semiconductor laser device comprises an active layer having a main extension plane, a first cladding layer and a second cladding layer where the active layer is arranged between the first and second cladding layer in a direction perpendicular to the main extension plane, at least one first emission region and at least one second emission region arranged next to each other in a direction parallel to the main extension plane, a light-outcoupling surface parallel to the main extension direction and arranged on a side of the second cladding layer opposite to the active layer, and a photonic crystal layer arranged in the first cladding layer or in second cladding layer. The photonic crystal layer may include a first photonic crystal structure in the first emission region and a second photonic crystal structure in the second emission region where the first and the second photonic crystal structures are different.
