Effects of accumulated strain on the surface and optical properties of stacked 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dot structures

We report the effects of accumulated strain by stacking on the surface and optical properties of stacked 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) structures grown by MOCVD. It is found that the surface of the stacked QD structures becomes more and more undulated with stacking, due to the increased strain in the stacked QD structures with stacking. The photoluminescence intensity from the QD structures first increases as the stacking number increases from 1 to 3 and then dramatically decreases as it further increases, implying a significant increase in the density of crystal defects in the stacked QD structures due to the accumulated strain. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the strain can be reduced by simply introducing annealing steps just after growing the GaAs spacers during the deposition of the stacked QD structures, leading to significant improvement in the surface and optical properties of the structures.

Low threshold current density 1.3 mu m metamorphic InGaAs/GaAs quantum well laser diodes

Very low threshold current density InGaAs/ GaAs quantum well laser diodes grown by molecular beam epitaxy on InGaAs metamorphic buffers are reported. The lasing wavelength of the ridge waveguide laser diode with cavity length of 1200 mm is centred at 1337.2 nm; the threshold current density is 205 A/cm(2) at room temperature under continuous-wave operation.

High-Temperature Continuous-Wave Single-Mode Operation of 1.3 mu m p-Doped InAs-GaAs Quantum-Dot VCSELs

In this letter, we have demonstrated continuous-wave single-mode operation of 1.3-mu m InAs-GaAs quantum-dot (QD) vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) with p-type modulation-doped QD active region from 20 degrees C to 60 degrees C. The highest output power of 0.435mW and lowest threshold current of 1.2 mA under single-mode operation are achieved. The temperature-dependent output characteristics of QD-VCSELs are investigated. Single-mode operation with a sidemode suppression ratio of 34 dB is observed at room temperature. The critical size of oxide aperture for single-mode operation is discussed.

Evolution of surface morphology and photoluminescence characteristics of 1.3-mu m In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Evolution of surface morphology and optical characteristics of 1.3-mu m In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and photoluminescence (PL). After deposition of 16 monolayers (ML) of In0.5Ga0.5As, QDs are formed and elongated along the [110] direction when using sub-ML depositions, while large size InGaAs QDs with better uniformity are formed when using ML or super-ML depositions. It is also found that the larger size QDs show enhanced PL efficiency without optical nonlinearity, which is in contrast to the elongated QDs.

Fabrication and modulation characteristics of 1.3 mu m p-doped InAs quantum dot vertical cavity surface emitting lasers

We present the fabrication of 1.3 mu m waveband p-doped InAs quantum dot (QD) vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) with an extremely simple process. The continuous-wave saturated output power of 1.1 mW with a lasing wavelength of 1280 nm is obtained at room temperature. The high-speed modulation characteristics of p-doped QD VCSELs of two different oxide aperture sizes are investigated and compared. The maximum 3 dB modulation bandwidth of 2.5 GHz can be achieved at a bias current of 7 mA for a p-doped QD VCSEL with an oxide aperture size of 10 mu m in the small signal frequency response measurements. The crucial factors for the 3 dB bandwidth limitation are discussed according to the parameters' extraction from frequency response.

Characteristic study of maximum modal gain of p-doped 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dot lasers

We report an experimental and theoretical study of maximum modal gain of p-doped 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) lasers. The maximum modal gain of the QD laser with five stacks of QDs is as high as 17.5 cm(-1) which is the same as that of the undoped laser with identical structures. The expression of the maximum modal gain is derived and it is indicated that p-doping has no effect to the maximum modal gain. We theoretically calculated the maximum modal gain of the QD lasers and the result is in a good agreement with the experimental data. Furthermore, QDs with lower height or smaller aspect ratio are beneficial to achieving a greater maximum modal gain that leads to lower threshold current density and higher differential modal gain, which is good for the application of p-doped 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs QD lasers in optical communications systems.

Optimizing the GaAs capping layer growth of 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs quantum dots by a combined two-temperature and annealing process at low temperatures

We report on optimizing the GaAs capping layer growth of 1.3 mu m InAs quantum dots (QDs) by a combined two-temperature and annealing process at low temperatures using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The initial part (tnm) of the capping layer is deposited at a low temperature of 500 degrees C, which is the same for the growth of both the QDs and a 5-nm-thick In0.15Ga0.85As strain-reducing capping layer on the QDs, while the remaining part is grown at a higher temperature of 560 degrees C after a rapid temperature rise and subsequent annealing period at this temperature. The capping layer is deposited at the low temperatures (<= 560 degrees C) to avoid postgrowth annealing effect that can blueshift the emission wavelength of the QDs. We demonstrate the existence of an optimum t (=5 nm) and a critical annealing time (>= 450s) during the capping, resulting in significantly enhanced photoluminescence from the QDs. This significant enhancement in photoluminescence is attributed to a dramatic reduction of defects due to the optimized capping growth. The technique reported here has important implications for realizing stacked 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs QD lasers. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Temperature Sensitivity Dependence on Cavity Length in p-Type Doped and Undoped 1.3-mu m InAs-GaAs Quantum-Dot Lasers

We have fabricated 1.3-mu m InAs-GaAs quantum-dot (QD) lasers with and without p-type modulation doping and their characteristics have been investigated. We find that introducing p-type doping in active regions can improve the temperature stability of 1.3-mu m InAs-GaAs QD lasers, but it does not, increase the saturation modal gain of the QD lasers. The saturation modal gain obtained from the two types of lasers is identical (17.5 cm(-1)). Moreover, the characteristic temperature increases as cavity length increases for the two types of lasers, and it improves more significantly for the lasers with p-type doping due to their higher gain.
