High-power continuous-wave operation of long wavelength quantum cascade lasers grown by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy is reported. The lasers have been processed as buried heterostructures with thick gold-plated contacts. The devices emit at a wavelength of 9.5 μm with output powers of several hundreds of milliwatts at room temperature.
DFB lasers with CW threshold currents as low as 8 mA at room temperature have been fabricated using the VPE transport process. The low threshold currents are attributed to narrow active stripes and to the high coupling strength of the grating. Single-mode lasing at 1.53?m up to I = 8Ith and during high-speed direct modulation has been confirmed.
