Abstract
Using in situ hydrogen desorption before the growth of the 12 nm thick active InGaAs layer over V-grooves, operation of gain coupled DFB lasers at 989 nm is achieved at room temperature. As-cleaved lasers, 600 μm long, have threshold current densities as low as 250 A/cm2 and typical sidemode suppression ratios of 40 dB
