  • Abstract
    1.5 mu m Fabry-Perot lasers exhibiting extremely low threshold currents have been obtained with a buried ridge stripe (BRS) structure. Threshold currents are 5.7 and 15.5 mA for 300 mu m and 1 mm cavity lengths, respectively, in CW operation. The optical losses of the buried waveguide have been determined from the external quantum efficiency dependence with cavity length.
