Abstract
Linear arrays of GaInAsSb-AlGaAsSb tapered lasers emitting at 2.05 mu m hav e been fabricated and operated with 1-ms current pulses. Peak power over 3 W was obtained for nine-element arrays at 18.5 A. Up to 1.7-W peak power, w ithin a 65-mrad full-angle cone, was measured in the far field using anamor phic collimating lens arrays, fabricated by mass transport in GaP.
