Ga(Al)Sb-based laser diodes grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs substra
tes are presented. The properties of ridge waveguide lasers based on this s
tructure are discussed. The lasers show lasing activity up to 273 K with a
laser threshold current density of 6.58 kA/cm(2) at 77 K. (C) 1999 Elsevier
