Abstract
A simple and highly reliable processing technique for ridge waveguide InGaAs/GaAs SQW lasers is proposed. Comparison is made with other more conventional processing sequences and measurements show that the char acteristics of the lasers obtained by this simple method are at least as good as and sometimes better than those made by the other processin g sequences. It is shown that the simplicity of the process guarantees a high yield. The high performances of these lasers are further optim ised by the application of optical coatings.
