Abstract :
AlGaInAs strained MQW lasers, emitting at 1.3 μm, have been prepared for the first time using a digital alloy approach. 2 μm stripe geometry lasers have characteristics comparable to those of lasers prepared using bulk alloy layers. The infinite length threshold current densities are as low as 140 kA/cm2/quantum well and T 0 values (20-40°C) range from 75-90 K for chip lengths of 375-2375 μm
