Abstract :
The authors report the first highly reliable all-MOVPE BH lasers. These devices have extremely low threshold currents (≃10 mA) and show excellent uniformity of device characteristics. Data are presented to show the high yields achieved and demonstrate the very low degradation rates achieved under accelerated aging
