摘要: A number of 5 μm stripe width shallow proton-bombarded double heterostructure (DH) AlGaAs LPE grown lasers show asymmetric light versus current characteristics and far fields. The optical power output above threshold is not the same for both faces at a given current. field patterns in junction plane from two mirrors are also different: angular distribution emitted mirrors. asymmetry fields subject this paper. It suggested that large loss near face with lower may explain different observed Possible explanations origin discussed.
