  • Abstract
    Stable room temperature operation of planar green laser diodes at 512 nm was achieved on ZnSe substrates, which are conductive in the first 200 μm from the top due to post-growth aluminium doping. The threshold current density is 900-1000 A/cm2 and the operating voltage is ~14 V. The lifetime in pulsed operation exceeds 1 h
