Abstract
We describe a method for determining the optimum coating parameters for a single-layer antireflection (AR) facet coating design. Single-layer AR coatings were deposited on broad-area single-quantum-well semiconductor lasers. Experimental and theoretical results indicate power reflectivities on the order of 5/spl times/10/sup -6/.
