With post-growth rapid thermal annealing (RTA), 824 nm strained Al 0.15In0.25Ga0.6As multiquantum-well (MQW) lasers grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) showed a record low threshold current density of 83 A/cm2 per well. Ridge waveguide lasers fabricated from the same material exhibited pulsed threshold current of 5 mA and 62% external quantum efficiency without facet coating. In addition, 1.4 K photoluminescence (PL) study suggests that RTA is very effective in removing nonradiative centres in the active region
