摘要
GaInAsN-GaAs double quantum-well (DQW) laser structures emitting in the 1.5-mum range were grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy using a radio frequency plasma source for nitrogen activation. Lasing operation in the 1.5-mum wavelength region has been realized for fabricated ridge waveguide laser diodes (LDs) under pulsed condition up to record high temperatures of 80 degreesC resulting in an emission wavelength of 1540 nm. This is the highest emission wavelength for laser diode operation based, on GaAs. In addition, to investigate the optical properties of the active region, photoluminescence studies of underlying GaInAsN-GaAs QW structures emitting at wavelengths up to 1.55 mum are presented.
