In this thesis, we report the fabrication of broad area high power 0.85 um single quantum well AlGaAs/GaAs graded index separate confinement (GRINSCH SQW) lasers by proton implantation and molecular beam epitaxy techniques.Lasers withand without anti-reflection and high-reflection coating on the two facets arecompared. Low threshold current density of 230 A/cm2 and threshold current of230 A are obtained for a 100 um wide and 1 mm long cavity. At 2.5 A injection, laser output reaches 2 W at room temperature CW condition.The characteristic temperature T0 is 139K (5~35C), slope effiency is 1.06W/A , wall plug efficiency is 38% and the internal loss is 3.585cm-1. The thermal resistance ofpackaged device is 9.6 K/W. The performance of our lasers is comparable to thestate of art devices that is commerically available.
