摘要:
To explore the ultimate threshold current limit in long‐wavelength semiconductor lasers, InxGa1−xAs/InP strained‐layer single quantum well laser diodes were studied for the first time by optically pumping with a 0.8 &mgr;m laser diode. Low‐threshold (≤92 A/cm2) cw operation was obtained and the lasing wavelength (1.62 &mgr;m) corresponding to the transition from the first quantization state of a 25 A˚ In0.8Ga0.2As well was observed. By taking the carrier collection efficiency (≤77%) into account, the actual threshold current density could be as low as 70 A/cm2.
