High-power quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) working in continuous wave (cw) above 400K are presented. The material was grown by low-pressure metal organic vapor-phase epitaxy and processed into narrow buried heterostructure lasers. A cw output power of 204mW was obtained at 300K with an 8.38μm wavelength, 3mm long and 7.5μm wide coated laser. The device operates in cw mode above 400K, which exceeds the previous maximum cw temperature operation of QCLs by approximately 60K. Preliminary reliability data obtained by accelerated aging tests indicate a remarkable robustness of the lasers.
