A continuous-wave regime, lasing near 2.2 µm, has been achieved for single longitudinal mode GaInSbAs double heterostructure lasers mounted on a Peltier cooler. In the pulsed regime the lasers exhibited a characteristic temperature of the threshold current as high as 132 K at heatsink temperatures up to 60°C.
