Abstract :
50 W peak-power was demonstrated from 2-mm-long, 100-/spl mu/m-aperture AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs single-quantum-well lasers driven with 40-ns, 80-A current pulses. Grown by organo-metallic vapor-phase epitaxy, the lasers have internal losses of 1.5 cm/sup -1/ and internal efficiencies of 0.90.
