Abstract

The design and operating characteristics of strained-layer InGaAsP/InGaAs active-grating surface-emitting amplified diode lasers are presented. For the first time, we report cw operation of an active-grating amplifier at a single wavelength of 1.7 micrometers with a cw power output in excess of 100 mW. In addition, we discuss, theoretically, the possibility of laterally scaling these devices using antiguided laser-array structures.
