摘要
High-power double-barrier separate confinement heterostructure (SCH) GaAsP-AlGaAs-GaAs laser diodes designed for low vertical beam divergence emission at 800-nm band are presented. Insertion of thin, wide-gap (low refractive index) barrier layers at the interfaces between the waveguide and cladding layers of an initial SCH causes an optical confinement weakening. As a result, the vertical divergences down to 16 degrees and 13 degrees have been obtained, depending on the design version. Similar threshold current densities, higher characteristic temperatures To compared to the high-power large optical cavity (LOC) lasers of comparable beam divergences and promising high-power performance make this design an alternative to LOC solution.
