We report on 980-nm InGaAs/GaAs lasers with dual-lobed far field based on a single-sided Bragg reflection waveguide (BRW). The high slope efficiency ∼0.92 W/A and a continuous wave (CW) output power >1.5 W (3.2 W pulsed) have been obtained. The threshold current density is as low as 253 A/cm2 for...
