Abstract :
Self-pulsating 630 nm band AlGaInP laser diodes with a strain-compensated MQW active layer have been successfully developed. A low threshold current of 48 mA was achieved, and relative intensity noise (RIN) was <7×10-14 Hz-1. These lasers have operated for more than 1000 h under 5 mW at 60°C
