Abstract
A novel technique is presented to measure the internal transverse and longitudinal temperature distributions within high-power, broad-area lasers with a resolution < 1°C, based on tracking the peaks of the spontaneous emission spectra from various points in the active region. The rationale of this technique is presented and its experimental application demonstrated.
