Abstract
A new GaAs injection laser structure is described in which the optical cavity thickness is very large and is varied independently of that of the pair recombination region. Large optical cavities are possible because the radiation propagates predominantly in low‐loss n‐type material. The problem of catastrophic degradation is greatly reduced because of the lower optical flux density.
