Abstract
High-power semiconductor lasers are needed in several optical signal processing applications and fiber-optic communications. Among various laser structures, the channel substrate planar (CSP)1 laser facilitates high-power single-mode operation by virtue of its unique geometry. However, growth of such a structure by liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) often results in a nonplanar active layer and improper melt-etch of the channel profile which will degrade the device performance.
