摘要：

We demonstrate a technique to modify the strain in a planar vertical-cavity semiconductor laser. The technique consists of locally melting a hole in the wafer next to the device by means of a focused laser beam. This allows manipulating both the magnitude and the orientation of the native birefringence in a permanent way. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
