摘要
The AlGaInAs material system has two important advantages over InGaAsP. One advantage is a larger conduction band offset(1,2) than that in InGaAsP (72% of the offset is in the conduction band compared to about 40% for InGaAsP). This increased conduction band offset is the major reason for the improved temperature performance of these devices. A second-advantage is the larger differential gain in the AlGaInAs devices which results in higher modulation rates.
