This is the dataset for  "Coherent waveguide laser arrays in semiconductor quantum well membranes", authored by Jonathan Woods, Jonathan Gorecki, Roman Bek, Stephen Richardson, Jake Daykin, Grace Hooper, Emelia Branagan-Harris, Anne Tropper, James Wilkinson, Micheal Jetter, Peter Michler and Vasilis Apostolopoulos in Optics Express, DOI: 10.1364/OE.457577 .

Dataset contains the raw data and MATLAB scritps required for recreating figures in the publication. 

The figures are as follows:

Figure 3 - Laser power characterisation
Figure 4 - Images and spectra for increasing pump power
Figure 5 - Numerical modelling of far-field interference patterns
Figure 6 - Images and spectra for operation on single and multiple wavelengths
Figure 7 - Images of lasing on oxidised silica substrate
Figure S1- Calibration data for imaging setup
Figure S2 - Beam profile as a function of lens position
Figure S4 - Laser characterisation
Figure S5 - Reciprocal space image fitting
Figure S9 - Spectral tuning

Additionally, the authors would like to outline that the colormap, "plasma", used in the MATLAB scripts is found as part of the "Perceptually uniform colormaps" package found on the MathWorks File Exchange
