Strained In/sub 0.2/Ga/sub 0.8/As/GaAs single quantum well polyimide buried ridge waveguide lasers with 3 dB modulation bandwidths of 15 GHz and gain compression factors in as small as 9.98*10/sup -18/cm/sup -3/ have been fabricated. The authors have also observed that the gain compression factor is not larger than in lasers with bulk active areas, and is lower for structures with a smaller number of wells and shorter cavity lengths.<<ETX>>
