Abstract :
We have successfully fabricated high performance 0.98 μm InGaAs-InGaAsP-AlGaAs diode lasers. This material system demonstrated the advantages of flexibility in structure design, simple epitaxial growth, improvement of surface morphology, low vertical beam divergence, high efficiency, high characteristic temperature, and superior reliability
