摘要
Highly strained 1.3 mu m range GaZnNAs/GaAs double quantum-well lasers grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition are demonstrated. A high characteristic temperature of 205 K (22-80 degrees C) was obtained with a low threshold current density of 0.92 kA/cm(2) (22 degrees C) in a broad stripe laser. The highest lasing operation temperature of 170 degrees C, and continuous-wave operation with a low threshold current of 27 mA were also obtained in a 7.5-mu m-wide ridge-stripe laser. The GaInNAs/GaAs material system is very promising for next-generation long-wavelength lasers.
