We report measurements of low-loss MOVPE-grown GaAlAs/GaAs strip-loaded waveguides with high coupling efficiency to single-mode fibres. A propagation loss of 2 dB/cm and a coupling efficiency of 70% has been achieved for a p+-i-n+-structure waveguide. A propagation loss of 0.7 dB/cm and a coupling efficiency of 61% has also been achieved for an n?-i-n?-structure waveguide.
