Abstract
Continous wave operation of interband cascade lasers based on type-II InAs/ Ga(In)Sb heterostructures is reported. The interband cascade lasers, consis ting of 23 cascaded active regions, lased at wavelengths near 4 mu m. conti nuous wave operation was observed from 60-110 mu m wide by 1.02 mm long mes a-stripe lasers at temperatures up to 70 K.
