Abstract :
Operation of real index guided GaInNAs quantum well lasers consisting of simple current confinement structure using bandgap difference is presented. The current confinement method is found to be useful to fabricate not only a single low cost optical devices but also photonic integrated circuit consisting with various waveguides and active devices.
