HIGH-EFFICIENCY DIODE LASERS AT HIGH OUTPUT POWER

808 nm lasers grown by molecular beam epitaxy show extremely high internal quantum efficiency and low internal loss, which results in very high slope efficiency at a long cavity length, and consequently, extremely high total power conversion efficiency at high continuous-wave power output.
