Abstract:We present state-of-the-art performance from green and blue InGaN-based laser diodes fabricated on nonpolar/semipolar substrates. Using these novel crystal orientations, we demonstrate high-power, high-efficiency, and long-lifetime continuous-wave laser operation. For green wavelengths at 520 nm, we report on continuous wave single mode lasing with over 65 mW of output power and wall plug efficiencies over 2%. In the blue regime we describe single-mode lasers operating with over 23% wall-plug-efficiency and wi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
