Abstract:
100µm stripe 975nm DFB lasers are shown to operate with spectral width <0.35nm to 100°C. Narrow (14°) vertical far field and reasonable conversion efficiency (39,5%) were achieved. A comparison with reference FP lasers is presented.

OCIS Codes:
(140.5960) Semiconductor lasers; (140.3490) Lasers, distributed-feedback
