AlGaInP visible laser diode with lateral leaky waveguide structure has been demonstrated for the fust time. The laser has differential quantum efficiency as high as 43% from one facet in addition to fundamental-transverse-mode stability without facet coating. The high differential quantum efficiency is due to the low propagation loss of this laser.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
