High-power high-efficiency 1150-nm quantum-well laser

摘要

Edge emitting diode lasers with highly strained InGaAs quantum wells and GaAs waveguide layers emitting at 1150 nm were investigated focusing on the impact of the waveguide design on the laser performance. Using a thick GaAs waveguide layer broad area devices with low vertical divergence of 20/spl deg/ FWHM and reliable operation at a power level of 80-mW//spl mu/m stripe width were demonstrated.
