Distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), distributed feedback (DFB), and grating coupled emission (GCE) Pb/sub 1-x/Sn/sub x/Se/Pb/sub 1-x-y/Eu/sub y/Sn/sub x/Se double heterostructure stripe geometry molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE)-grown diodes lasers were designed, fabricated, and tested in this work. These DBR and DFB lasers were the first Pb-salt corrugated lasers to operate in CW (continuous) mode at temperatures above that of liquid nitrogen. With the GCE lasers, a narrow far field distribution of --5/sup 0/ was obtained for the first time.
