摘要
Laser diodes based on an asymmetric heterostructure AlGaAs/GaAs with a bulk active region, optimized for generating high-power subnanosecond optical pulses in the gain-switching mode, have been developed and investigated. The optimization of the asymmetric heterostructure design made it possible to obtain the parameter d/G = 4.2 mu m (at the thickness d = 45 nm of the GaAs bulk active region and the optical confinement factor G = 1.08%). The developed laser diodes with a wide emitting aperture (100 mu m) in the gain-switching mode demonstrated a peak output optical power of 22 W at a single pulse width at half maximum of less than 110 ps.
