Abstract
Maximum CW output powers of 380 and 300 mW were obtained from GaInAsP/InP LDs at 1.3 and 1.45 mu m, respectively, at a temperature of -40 degrees C. Temperature-stressed CW aging tests were carried out under high output powers of about 260 mW at 1.3 mu m and 220 mW at 1.45 mu m. The degradation rates of output power were estimated to be less than 3% per 1000 h from the 1600 h aging tests. CW operation has been confirmed under extremely high power operation at low temperature.
