I. Moerman et al., INGAASP INP STRAINED MQW LASER WITH INTEGRATED-MODE SIZE CONVERTER USING THE SHADOW MASKED GROWTH TECHNIQUE/, Electronics Letters, 31(6), 1995, pp. 452-454
The authors report the realisation of a planar buried-heterostructure
(PBH) strained multiquantum-well (MQW) laser emitting at 1.52 mu m wit
h integrated vertical taper using the shadow masked growth (SMG) techn
ique. The threshold current is 8mA and the coupling loss to a cleaved
singlemode fibre is only 3.3dB.
