A 780 Nm High-Power and Highly Reliable Laser Diode with A Long Cavity and A Thin Tapered-Thickness Active Layer
IEEE journal of quantum electronics(1990)
摘要
Conventional AlGaAs laser diodes with uniform thickness active layers of various cavity lengths are investigated. It is recognized that the extension of the cavity length is effective in the improvement of the maximum output power, the temperature characteristics, and the operating life in high-temperature conditions. A 780-nm, high-power laser diode having a 350- mu m-long cavity with a thin tapered-thickness active layer was fabricated. The optical power density near the mirror facets, the thermal resistance, the current density, and the carrier density were reduced by this structure. The laser emitted over 100 mW of CW (continuous-wave) output power at temperatures up to 80 degrees C. A maximum output power level of 160 mW was achieved at room temperature. The fundamental transverse mode was confirmed at least up to 120 mW. >
