  • Abstract
    In this letter, lasing action of GaAs graded index separate confinement heterostructure single-quantum well lasers grown by MOVPE on InP substrates is reported. Stripe lasers without facet coating show a room temperature threshold current down to 54 mA under pulsed condition. The differential quantum efficiency attains 20% per facet but preliminary aging measurements indicate a short lifetime.
