摘要：

in this study, we demonstrate a highly strained 1.21 mum GaInAs/GaAs quantum well laser which may be used in high-speed local area networks. Edge emitting lasers with either a GaInP or AlGaAs cladding layer have been fabricated. We have achieved a threshold current density as low as 170 A/cm(2) for GaInP-cladding-layer lasers and a high characteristic temperature To as high as 211 K from 30 degreesC to 120 degreesC for AlGaAs-cladding-layer lasers. The material gain coefficient go was estimated to be 1550 cm(-1) which is comparable to that of 0.98 mum GaInAs lasers. A preliminary lifetime test under heatsink-free CW condition was carried out, which shows no notable degradation after 300 h. We also demonstrated an AlAs oxide confinement laser in a 1.2 mum wavelength band.
