Abstract

Superluminescent diodes (SLDs) based on (AlGa)As single quantum well separate confinement heterostructures have been fabricated. The dependencies of their output power and spectrum on active channel length, pumping level and temperature were studied. Using combined pulsed/DC pumping an average spectrum width of 98 nm was obtained. A visibility function FWHM of 5.5 µm and 1/e2 width of 9.5 µm were recorded.
