16 W CW output power from 100-/spl mu/m aperture laser based on quantum well asymmetric heterostructure with lowest internal loss
16 W CW room temperature front facet output optical power and 72% wall plug efficiency were attained in 100-/spl mu/m-aperture laser diodes based on quantum well heterostructure with ultra wide asymmetric waveguide.
Properties of wide-mesastripe InGaAsP/InP lasers
Wide-mesastripe InGaAsP/InP heterostructure lasers emitting at 1.3–1.5 µm were grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Radiation-power-current and spectral characteristics of the lasers have been studied in pulsed and continuous wave (cw) operation in the temperature range of 10–60°C. The temperature of the active region of the diode laser is higher by 30–60°C than that of the copper heatsink upon saturation of the cw output power. The temperature dependence of the differential quantum efficiency strongly affects the cw output power. Output powers of 3 and 2.6 W are achieved in mesastripe lasers in cw operation, and 9 and 6.5 W in pulsed operation, at wavelengths of 1.3 and 1.5 µm, respectively.
Thermodynamics on the Carbochlorination of Titanium-bearing Ores
The equilibrium compositions of the multi-component, multi-phase and multi-reaction system of carbochlorination of titanium-bearing ores are calculated with HSC, a computational chemistry software. The thermodynamic equilibrium calculation of the reaction system shows that a complete conversion of titanium-bearing ores is feasible at a temperature near 200oC. At temperatures ranging from 800 to 1600oC, the products of the reaction system are all in gaseous phase. Thermodynamic analysis accords with the industrial practice. The simulated results provide reasonable scientific basis for improving suitable technological conditions of the carbochlorination reduction.
