摘要
The temperature dependence of the emission of a (GaIn)(NAs)/GaAs vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is investigated. We find laser emission over an extremely broad temperature range from 30 K up to 388 K. The laser threshold varies from 5 kW/cm(2) at 373 K down to a minimum of 1 kW/cm(2) at 180 K and increases again to 4 kW/cm(2) at 30 K. Picosecond emission dynamics after femtosecond optical excitation is obtained with peak delays below 33 ps and pulse widths below 20 ps over the entire operation range.
