摘要
InAs quantum-dot (QD) laser structures are grown on (113)B-oriented InP substrate by gas-source molecular-beam epitaxy. Following an optimized growth procedure, a high density of 1.1x10(11) cm(-2) of uniformly sized QDs is achieved. Broad-area lasers containing three stacked QD layers have been realized and tested. Laser emission on the ground-state transition (lambda=1.59 mu m) is obtained at room temperature (RT), at a threshold current density as low as 190 A/cm(2). Ground-state modal gain and transparency current density is measured to be 7 cm(-1) and 23 A/cm(2) per dot layer. Ground-state laser emission is also demonstrated from low temperature (100 K, J(th)=33 A/cm(2)) to high temperature (350 K), exhibiting an insensitive threshold in the [100, 170] K range, and a 55 K characteristic temperature at RT.
