Optical arrangement

• A solid-state laser or arrangement for wavelength conversion is disclosed, which in its simplest embodiment is comprised of a light-generating body (102) arranged in a supporting means (103), the light-generating body (102) having a shape which is substantially complementary to a guiding structure (104) which is formed in the supporting means (103). The guiding structure (104) is formed with a high degree of accuracy, for instance, by etching the supporting means (103) or by replicating an original. Between the light-generating body (102) and the guiding structure (104) of the supporting means a thin contact layer (105) is arranged, the purpose of which is to increase the adherence to and/or the heat transfer to the supporting means (103). Due to the fact that the contact layer (105) is a deformable material, possible discrepancies as regards complementarity between the guiding structure (104) and the light-generating body (102) will be filled by the contact layer (105), whereby a close fit is obtained between the complementary structures.
