Abstract
The progress in long-wavelength compressively and tensile-strained InG aAs(P) quantum-well semiconductor lasers and amplifiers is reviewed. B y the application of grown-in strain, the device performance is consid erably improved such that conventional bulk and unstrained quantum-wel l active-layer devices are outperformed, while a high reliability is m aintained.
