  • low Threshold Current Density gaassb quantum well qw lasers grown by metal organic chemical vapour deposition on gaas substrates
    Electronics Letters, 2000
    Co-Authors: Sangwan Ryu, P D Dapkus
    Abstract:

    Low Threshold Current Density GaAsSb/GaAs quantum well (QW) lasers were realised by metal organic chemical vapour deposition. A record low Threshold Current Density of 190 A/cm/sup 2/ was obtained from a 2.2 mm long broad area laser with the emission wavelength of 1.19 /spl mu/m.

  • fabrication characterization and analysis of low Threshold Current Density 1 55 spl mu m strained quantum well lasers
    IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, 1996
    Co-Authors: A. Mathur, P D Dapkus
    Abstract:

    Tertiarybutylarsine and tertiarybutylphosphine are less hazardous alternatives to arsine and phosphine as group V sources for crystal growth of In/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/As/sub y/P/sub 1-y/ alloys by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Compressive and tensile-strained quantum-well lasers emitting at 1.55 /spl mu/m have been fabricated using these sources. Threshold Current Density as low as 93 A/cm/sup 2/, transparency Current Density as low as 38 A/cm/sup 2/ and internal efficiency of 91% were obtained for 1.5% compressive-strained single quantum-well lasers. These devices represent the best lasers emitting at this wavelength that have been reported in the literature. An analysis of some of the characteristics of these devices such as transparency Current, differential gain and nonradiative recombination is also presented in this paper.

  • Low-Threshold-Current-Density 1.5 mu m lasers using compressively strained InGaAsP quantum wells
    IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 1992
    Co-Authors: J.s. Osinski, P. Grodzinski, A. Mathur, P D Dapkus
    Abstract:

    A low-Threshold Current Density (J/sub th/) of 140 A/cm/sup 2/ for broad-area 1.5- mu m semiconductor lasers with uncoated facets is demonstrated at a cavity length of 3.5 mm. This was achieved by the use of a single InGaAsP quantum well (QW) of 1.8% compressive strain inside a step-graded InGaAsP waveguide region. Low-cavity losses of 3.5 cm/sup -1/ and a relatively wide quantum well as compared to InGaAs wells of equivalent strain contribute to this high performance. Double QW devices of 2 mm length showed Threshold Current densities of 241 A/cm/sup 2/. Quaternary single and double QWs of similar width but only 0. 9% strain gave slightly higher Threshold Current Density values, but allowed growth of a 4 QW structure with a J/sub th/ of 324 A/cm/sup 2/ at L=1.5 mm.
