摘要
Self-assembled InAs quantum-dot lasers grown by molecular-beam epitaxy using an AlGaAsSb metamorphic buffer layer on a GaAs substrate are reported. The resulting quantum-dot ensemble has a density >3 x 10(10)/cm(2) and a ground-state transition ranging from 1.46 to 1.63 mum. Pulsed, room-temperature operation generates lasing from the first excited state transition at wavelengths ranging from 1.27 to 1.34 mum. The minimum threshold current density (304 A/cm(2)) is achieved for a 7.7 mm cavity with cleaved, uncoated facets. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
