摘要
In this letter, we report on the observation of optically excited stimulated emission of c-GaN layers grown by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). Stimulated emission was observed at 1.8 K and room temperature. The threshold intensity for excitation of stimulated emission from our MBE-grown c-GaN layers is significantly lower than that reported for c-GaN grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The experimental data of optical gain and stimulated emission presented in this letter demonstrate that this material has a good potential for the future realization of cleaved cavity blue light-emitting laser diodes.
