Abstract

Type-I quantum-well (QW) diode lasers based on AlInGaAsSbInGaAsSbAlInGaAsSb heterostructure active region with narrow waveguide and high indium content in the barrier were fabricated. Room-temperature continuous-wave output power of 190, 165, and 50 mW for devices emitting 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 μ correspondingly were demonstrated. Experiment shows that improvement of the hole confinement in QWs by use of 32% indium in AlGaInAsSb barrier is a promising way of further enhancement of the device performance.
