Paper abstract: A laser source is presented a plurality of unit cells of a selected number of partially physically coupled lasing units arranged within a plane and configured to form a topological structure, wherein each of the lasing units is configured to emit radiation component substantially perpendicular to said plane, said plurality of the unit cells comprising at least a first sub-array of the unit cells located in a first region interfacing with a second region of a different type than said first region, thereby defining an arrangement of optically coupled lasing units along an interface region between the first and second adjacent regions, forming at least one topological state along a topological path within said interface region.
