Abstract :
The high power operation of the lateral mode stabilized 785nm AlGaAs LD with the window-mirror structure has been demonstrated. The stable lateral mode operation up to 250mW (kink level of 280 mW) is realized. To the best our knowledge, this is the highest power record among the narrow stripe LDs with a wavelength of 785 nm and is suitable for CD ROM disc drives.
