  • Abstract
    Room-temperature continuous-wave operation of a 1.3- \\mu{\\rm m} npn-AlGaInAs/InP transistor laser is successfully achieved for the first time. A threshold current of 39 mA and an external differential quantum efficiency of 13% are obtained under common base operation, while simultaneous transistor action is achieved with a current gain \\beta of 0.02.
