We report the development of a novel ridge‐type AlGaInN‐based laser diode structure fabricated by a metal organic vapor phase epitaxial regrowth method. The selective‐area regrowth of AlGaN was optimized and compared with regular planar growth. An AlN fraction of 13% in the regrown ridge was concluded from the cathodoluminescence spectrum. The laser diode structure showed superluminescence at 465 nm under optical excitation. Under electrical excitation a super‐linear increase of the light output power was observed.
