  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We have succeeded in continuous wave (CW) operation of a GaInNAs single active layer QW laser diode at room temperature, for the first time. The use of GaInNAs greatly improved the high temperature performance of long-wavelength-range laser diodes. Thus, the applicatability of GaInNAs, which is a novel material for laser diodes used in optical-fiber communications, was demonstrated.
