  • Abstract
    In this paper, we describe a new structure design for producing low-threshold high-efficiency and high-brightness 0.807- \\mu\\hbox {m} lasers. In this structure, we incorporate a self-discriminating weak optical confinement asymmetrical waveguide, and an active region based on single or double AlInGaAs quantum well (QW) with Te n-type \\delta -doping. Optimized coupling between the \\delta -doping layer and the double QW, along with waveguide and doping profile optimization, yields th=140 \\hbox {A/cm$^{-2}$} per QW, a far-field angle of \\sim \\hbox {24$^\\circ$} , and M^2 close to one.
