We propose a new type of in-phase lateral- and single-longitudinal-mode laser array, the so-called antiguided filter laser array (AFLA), in which an antiguided filter region is inserted between a positive-index-guided multiple-stripe array region with a shallow corrugation grating and a high-reflectivity region with deep corrugation. Threshold current as low as 100 mA was obtained for a five-element laser array with active region length of 300 mum and total emitter width of 18 mum by using five-pairs of Ga0.3In0.7As (3 nm) / GaInAsP (10 nm) compressively strained quantum wells.
