Y. Onishi et al., Design and fabrication process of optically pumped GaInAsP/InP stripe laser with resonant pumping for high-power operation, JPN J A P 1, 40(8), 2001, pp. 4920-4921
A high-power GaInAsP/InP semiconductor laser optically pumped by a 0.98 mum
high-power broad area laser has been proposed. A vertical resonant pumping
scheme is introduced to increase the absorption efficiency of the pump lig
ht. It is shown that the fraction of absorbed pump light can be increased u
p to 99% by inserting a highly reflective mirror with a reflectivity of 99%
. in addition, a vertical resonant cavity using a GaAs/AlAs distributed Bra
gg reflector (DBR) was formed by a low-temperature water bonding technique.
