  • Abstract
    InxGa1-xAs vapor-grown laser diodes that are capable of providing pulsed operation at 300°K and continuous-wave (c-w) operation at 77°K have been prepared for 1.06 µm emission. From this material, we have obtained 64 mW of c-w radiation from a single laser diode, and more than 20 W (peak power) from a pulsed, 12-element laser array at 77°K. At room temperature, threshold current densities of 7 \\times 10^{4} A/cm2have been achieved with homojunction lasers emitting at 1.145 µm.
