Arrays of 100-μm-wide GaInAsSb/AlGaAsSb laser diode emitters with a fill factor of 30% have been fabricated. Suppression of lateral lasing was achieved by the incorporation of grooves between the emitters. A quasi-continuous wave (CW) (30 μs, 300 Hz) output power of 16.7 W from a 4-mm-long laser bar has been demonstrated.
