Abstract :
The letter presents a surface-emitting GaInAsP/InP injection laser with 7 ¿m cavity length operating at 1.30 ¿m of wavelength. The threshold was as low as 50 mA at 77 K. The device operated up to 140 K with one single longitudinal mode and small wavelength change (0.64 Ã
/degree). The near-field diameter was 9 ¿m and the far-field angle (FWHM) was 9°. The polarisation was linear.
