A Zn diffusion stripe laser is fabricated by the metalorganic chemical vapour deposition and the open-tube, two-step, solid-phase diffusion technique. The threshold current is 9.4 mA and the lasing wavelength is 780 nm at 20°C. The laser operates in the fundamental transverse mode and the astigmatic distance is less than 1 μm. The laser has operated for over 1000 h at 60°C with a power of 3 mW.
