Abstract
Broad-area (W = 150 mu m) single-quantum-well (SQW) lasers have been s uccessfully fabricated on n-type In0.03Ga0.97As substrates without inc orporating aluminum-containing alloys. The strained-layer InGaP-GaAs-I nGaAs heterostructure was grown by atmospheric pressure metalorganic c hemical vapor deposition. Due to both the increased substrate lattice constant and the partial strain compensation supplied by the tensile-s trained GaAs optical guiding layers, a peak emission wavelength of 1.1 403 mu m is obtained for a 1-mm cavity length.
