Abstract

We report the fabrication and high temperature operation characteristics of the 1.55 μm InGaAsP/InP compressive-strained multiple-quantum-well capped-mesaburied-heterostructure (MQW-CMBH) lasers. The laser performances of low threshold current achieved by compressive-strained multiple quantum wells and effective current blocking obtained by p-n-p-n InP layers are investigated. For as-cleaved lasers, continuous wave (CW) output power more than 6 mW at 100°C and pulsed output power up to 51 mW at 20°C are demonstrated. The fabricated LDs have been evaluated by reliability testing, and were estimated having lifetime of around 136,000 hours.
