Notes:
Strained single-quantum-well, broadened-waveguide GaInAsSb/AlGaAsSb diode lasers have exhibited room-temperature threshold current densities as low as 50 A/cm2, one of the lowest values reported for diode lasers at room temperature. These lasers, grown by molecular beam epitaxy, have emission wavelengths of ∼2.05 μm, characteristic temperature of 65 K, internal quantum efficiency of 95%, and internal loss coefficient of 7 cm−1. Single-ended cw power of 1 W is obtained for a 100-μm aperture. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
