  • Abstract
    An InGaAs/AlGaAs GRINSCH SQW semiconductor laser with a half-symmetric resonator has been fabricated using focused-ion-beam micromachining (FIBM), and CW operated with output powers up to 1.2 W, and brightness up to 92 MW Cm-2 Sr-1. Its spatio-spectral characteristics and lasing action are investigated, and explained by a core-amplifier model.
