  • Abstract
    13.5 W CW optical power has been demonstrated from a 1 cm wide GaInAsP/InP monolithic diode array lasing at 1.9 μm. CW optical powers of 1.12 and 1.43 W have been demonstrated for 100 and 150 μm wide aperture broad area laser diodes, respectively. A 5000 h lifetest for the monolithic diode arrays indicates that the arrays operate reliably at 7 W at 20°C and 6 W at 30°C
