Abstract :
The fabrication and characterisation of a monolithic extended cavity ridge laser using low-energy ion-implantation induced quantum well intermixing on InGaAs/InGaAsP quantum-well structure are presented. An extremely low propagation loss of 2 cm-1 in the passive waveguide section has been measured.
