650nm AlGaInP quantum well lasers for the application of DVD

Main application of 650nm band laser diodes are for digital versatile disk (DVD). We demonstrate here the 650nm AlGaInP LD grown by LP-MOCVD with the structure of selected buried ridge waveguide. Excellent performance of LD have been achieved such as threshold current, threshold current density as low as 20mA and 350A/cm(2) respectively at room temperature, the operating temperature up to 90 for the linear power output of 5mw. RIN is about -130db/Hz, The samples of LD have been certified by PUH manufacturers.
