Abstract:
A buried-mesa AlGaAs/GaAs/GaInAs laser heterostructure emitting at a wavelength of 1050 nm is formed on a GaAs substrate by MOCVD. Mesa-stripe laser diodes with an aperture of 100 μm based on the obtained heterostructure are fabricated and studied. The internal optical losses of the laser diodes are 2.4 cm-1. The output powers in both directions achieved at a cavity length of 2900 μm in the cw and pulsed regimes were 2.1 and 23 W, respectively.
