Abstract :
A new fabrication process has been successfully applied for the first time to the AlGaAs/GaAs laser diode. This new process includes vapor phase etching and subsequent MOVPE regrowth. Self-aligned LD\´s fabricated by this process have shown sufficiently good characteristics (

mA,

percent), and good reliability (no degradation at least up to 1000 h:50°C, 5mW, automatic power control mode).
