Abstract
We have successfully developed GaInN-based 400nm lasers for DVR-blue systems and GaInP-based 650nm lasers for DVD+/- RW systems. The high-performance blue-violet laser developed here has low relative intensity noise (RIN) of -128 dB/Hz, low aspect ratio of 2.3, and a nominal lifetime of 15000 h at 60 degree(s)C and 30 mW output power. The 650nm red laser was developed for DVD+/- RW systems, which require red lasers with output power exceeding 90 mW in order to increase the data transfer speed. The high-power red lasers developed here are capable of 90 to 120 mW output power with high reliability at 60 to 70 degree(s)C and have a low aspect ratio of 2.3.
