This dataset supporting the article "Bi-frequency operation in a membrane external-cavity surface-emitting laser", by J Daykin, J Woods, R Bek, M Jetter, P Michler, B Mills, P Horak, J Wilkinson and V Apostolopoulos. PLOS One (in press)

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

The figures to be recreated are as follows and corresponding code and data can be found in appropriately named folders:

Figures 3B - Simulated mode losses for a range of mask widths

Figure 4 - MECSEL output power and spectrum while off-mask

Figure 5 - Spectral emission from MECSEL while operating on each of the spatial loss masks and while on an unablated area. Requires the running of individual .m files from subfolders

Figure 6 - Calculated etalon transmission plotted with spectral emission from MECSEL while centred on the 10µm mask

Figure 7C - Spectral profile from MECSEL while operating on the 50µm mask at a pump power of 3.96W

Figure 8 - RF spectral data for MECSEL operating on mask with detector both blocked and unblocked, as well as the residual of the two plots.

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
