Double-heterostructure (DH) injection lasers based on the GaAs$sub 1$/ sub -//subx/Sb/subx//Al/suby/Ga$sub 1$/sub -//suby/As$sub 1$/sub -//subx/Sb/subx/ system have been fabricated using liquid phase epitaxial growth techniques and operated at room temperature at wavelengths in the 1-$mu$m region. The observed room-temperature threshold current densities, as low as 2100 A cm$sup -2$, are comparable to those of GaAs/AlGaAs devices of similar geometry.
