Abstract
Using a new LPE growth technique, an InGaAsP/InP planar buried heterostructure laser diode (PBH-LD) has been realised in 1.3 and 1.5 ¿m wavelength regions. As a result of the effective carrier confinement, CW threshold currents as low as 8.5 mA and 13 mA have been obtained in 1.3 and 1.5 ¿m PHB-LDs, respectively, at room temperature.
