  • Abstract
    1.3 ¿m buried-heterostructure lasers with CW threshold currents as low as 19 mA have been fabricated using a multilayer infil structure. This technique significantly reduces the alignment tolerances necessary for low-threshold BH laser fabrication. Single transverse and longitudinal mode operation is observed for active layer widths below 3.5 ¿m.
