Abstract

An active area based on InGaAs/InGaAlAs superlattice for laser diodes operating in the spectral range between 1535 and 1565 nm is proposed and realized practically. It is demonstrated that using a superlattice increases the mode gain at the same values of the pump-diode current density relative to a typical active-area design based on an array of InGaAs quantum wells.
