High-Power (over 100 mW) Green Laser Diodes on Semipolar \202̄1\ GaN Substrates Operating at Wavelengths beyond 530 nm

Continuous-wave operation of InGaN green laser diodes (LDs) on semipolar {2021} GaN substrates with output powers of over 100 mW in the spectral region beyond 530 nm is demonstrated. Wall plug efficiencies (WPEs) as high as 7.0–8.9% are realized in the wavelength range of 525–532 nm, which exceed those reported for c -plane LDs. The longest lasing wavelength has reached 536.6 nm under cw operation. These results suggest that the InGaN green LDs on the {2021} plane are better suited as light sources for applications requiring wavelengths over 525 nm.
