Abstract :
Long wavelength GaInAsSb/AlGaAsSb quantum wells lasers have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy and processed into ridge cavities coupled by an intracavity photonic crystal mirror, to enhance the laser spectral properties. The devices operate in the continuous-wave regime at room temperature with a single frequency emission at 2.6 m.
