G. Beister et al., MONOMODE EMISSION AT 350 MW AND HIGH-RELIABILITY WITH INGAAS ALGAAS (LAMBDA=1020 NM) RIDGE-WAVE-GUIDE LASER-DIODES/, Electronics Letters, 34(8), 1998, pp. 778-779
3.35mm long InGAs/GaAs/AlGaAs ridge waveguide lasers emitting at 1020n
m showed monomode emission up to 350mW. By widening the emission near
field and protecting the Facets with ZnSe/Al2O3, remarkable facet stab
ility was obtained, confirmed during aging at 40 degrees C and 300mW e
mission power, or at 70 degrees C and 250mW.
