Abstract
In the manufacture of an InP/(In,Ga) (As,P) buried rib laser, the sides of the laser are profiled to have surfaces extending in {111} A planes down to the junction between the active and lower confining layers, and to have surfaces extending in other planes beneath this junction. In the subsequent epitaxial regrowth nucleation above this junction between the surfaces is discriminated against in favor of growth beneath this junction so that the regrowth up the sides of the rib is automatically temporarily arrested in the vicinity of this junction.
