Compact hybrid resonant optical reflector lasers with very narrow linewidths

Hybrid resonant optical reflector lasers of less than 1 cm length are described. These external cavity devices operate with very narrow linewidth approaching the resonator-loss-limited minimum. Best linewidth results are 7.1 kHz at 1.3 μm and 24 kHz at 1.55 μm.
