Abstract :
High brightness gain guided tapered lasers emitting at 1060 nm were designed, simulated and fabricated. The devices showed excellent beam quality up to 2 W cw, and the experimental results were similar to the predictions of the simulations. Tapered lasers with separate contacts were designed with the goal of achieving a high modulated power with a low modulating current.
