  • Abstract
    The application of the broad-waveguide concept to InGaAsP/InP diode lasers has resulted in a fourfold reduction in internal loss to 1.3 cm-1 while achieving a record low threshold current of 73 A/ cm2 per quantum well. Output powers of 5.2 W continuous wave and 10 W quasi-continuous wave are demonstrated for 200 μm-aperture lasers emitting at 1.43 μm
