Abstract

Long duration life tests of approximately 6,000 hours on AlGaAs single-mode lasers operating at 200 mW and 50 degree(s)C indicate that high reliability can be obtained under these conditions. The projected median life is 140,000 hr and MTBF is 100,000 hr. These results compare favorably with data from other material systems.
