High power single mode 980 nm AIGalnAs/AIGaAs quantum well lasers with a very low threshold current

To achieve low threshold current as well as high single mode output power, a graded index separate confinement heterostructure (GRIN-SCH) A1GaInAs/A1GaAs quantum well laser with an optimized ridge wave- guide was fabricated. The threshold current was reduced to 8 mA. An output power of 76 mW was ach...

Summary:To achieve low threshold current as well as high single mode output power, a graded index separate confinement heterostructure (GRIN-SCH) A1GaInAs/A1GaAs quantum well laser with an optimized ridge wave- guide was fabricated. The threshold current was reduced to 8 mA. An output power of 76 mW was achieved at 100 mA current at room temperature, with a slope efficiency of 0.83 W/A and a horizon divergent angle of 6.3°. The maximum single mode output power of the device reached as high as 450 mW.
