cw operation of distributed-feedback GaAs-GaAlAs diode lasers at temperatures up to 300 K

摘要

Distributed-feedback GaAs-GaAlAs diode lasers with separate optical and carrier confinement have been successfully operated under dc bias up to room temperature. They lased in a single longitudinal mode with a threshold current density of 0.94 kA/cm^2 at 170 K and 3.5 kA/cm^2 at 300 K.
