Room-temperature pulsed laser operation of (Al/sub 0.3/Ga/sub 0.7/)/sub 0.5/In/sub 0.5/P/ Ga/sub 0.5/In/sub 0.5/P/ (Al/sub 0.3/Ga/sub 0.7/)/sub 0.5/In/sub 0.5/P double heterostructure laser diodes grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition has been achieved for the first time. The lowest threshold current density was 26 kA/cm/sup 2/ for a diode with a 22-..mu..m-wide and 160-..mu..m-long stripe. The lasing wavelength was 0.683 ..mu..m.
