Abstract
GaInAsSb-AlGaAsSb multiple quantum-well (QW) lasers with an emission wavelength of 2.81 /spl mu/m are reported. The ridge waveguide lasers with highly strained QWs show continuous-wave laser emission up to 25/spl deg/C; in pulsed mode, the lasers operate up to 60/spl deg/C. For pulsed operation, a threshold current density of 360 A/cm/sup 2/ is found for devices with 30-/spl mu/m stripe width and 2-mm cavity length at room temperature. A low threshold current density at infinite length of 248 A/cm/sup 2/ is derived.
