  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. In order to optimize the brightness of these diode lasers, the dependence of the linewidth enhancement factor and of the beam quality on the device structure parameters was investigated. The active In0.12Ga0.88As quantum well with a thickness of 7 nm is embedded in Al0.2Ga0.8As waveguides and Al0.4Ga0.6As cladding layers.
