Abstract
A strain-balanced, InP-based quantum cascade laser structure designed for light emission at 4.6μm was grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. A maximum total optical power of 1.6W was obtained in continuous-wave mode at 300K for uncoated devices processed in buried heterostructure geometry with stripe dimensions of 5mm by 9.5μm. Corresponding maximum wall plug efficiency and threshold current density were measured to be 8.8% and 1.05kA∕cm2, respectively. Fully hermetically packaged laser of identical dimensions produced in excess of 1.5W under the same conditions.
