Abstract
An edge-emitting monolithically integrated master oscillator power amplifier (M-MOPA) has been fabricated by integrating a distributed Bragg reflector laser with a 500 mu m long singlemode amplifier. The M-MOPA contains a strained InGaAs quantum well in the active region and operates at approximately 981.5 nm in an edge-emitting fashion with maximum powers in excess of 175 mW. Single longitudinal and transverse mode operation is maintained to powers in excess of 110 mWCW.
