High Performance 785 nm Wavelength Super-Luminescent Diodes

Abstract:

High-performance 785 nm wavelength super-luminescent diodes (SLDs) with ring cavity were fabricated. The maximum output power of 100 mW was obtained in continuous wave (CW) mode under room temperature. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the emission spectrum was 24 nm.
