摘要
InAs quantum dots (QDs) with a high density of 9x10(10) cm(-2) are formed on InAlGaAs layer/InP (311)B substrates. Lasers having five-period stacked InAs QD layers are operated in the ground state (lambda approximate to1.6 mum) at room temperature, and the maximal modal gain of the ground state is measured to be 20 cm(-1). We obtained a threshold current density of 380 A/cm(2) at room temperature, and observed the temperature-insensitive threshold current at temperatures from 77 to 220 K.
