The progress in long-wavelength compressively and tensile-strained InGaAs(P) quantum-well semiconductor lasers and amplifiers is reviewed. By the application of grown-in strain, the device performance is considerably improved such that conventional bulk and unstrained quantum-well active-layer devices are outperformed, while a high reliability is maintained
