Single Mode 2 mu m GaSb Based Laterally Coupled Distributed Feedback Quantum-Well Laser Diodes with Metal Grating
2015
Room-temperature operation of a GaSb based laterally coupled distributed feedback quantum-well laser diode emitting at 2 μm is demonstrated. The device exhibits single longitudinal mode characteristic as a result of the first order Cr-Bragg gratings alongside the narrow ridge waveguide. We design the laser structure to obtain a critical coupling condition corresponding to a coupling coefficient of 12 cm−1. For a 1-mm-long uncoated laser diode with a 3-μm-wide stripe, a single mode output spectrum with side mode suppression ratio as high as 28.5 dB is achieved, and the maximum single mode continuous-wave output power is about 11 mW at room temperature.
