Leakage current analysis in AlGaInP/GaInP multi-quantum well lasers by the electrical derivative method - art. no. 60202F

In AlGaInP/GaInP multi-quantum well (MQW) lasers, the electron leakage current is a much more serious problem than that in laser diodes with longer wavelength. To further improve the output performance, the leakage current should be analyzed. In this letter, the temperature dependence of electrical derivative characteristics in AlGaInP/GaInP multi-quantum well lasers was measured, and the potential barrier for electron leakage was obtained. With the help of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) measurement, theoretical analysis of the potential barrier was presented and compared with the measurement result. The influence of p-cladding doping level and doping profile on the potential barrier was discussed, and this can be helpful in metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth.

1.3 mu m GaInNAs/GaAs quantum well lasers and photodetectors

The growth of GalnNAs/GaAs quantum well (QW) has been investigated by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). N was introduced by a dc-active plasma source. Highest N concentration of 2.6% in GaInNAs/GaAs QW was obtained, corresponding to the photoluminescence peak wavelength of 1.57 mum at 10K. The nitrogen incorporation behavior in MBE growth and the quality improvement of the QW have been studied in detail. 1.3 mum GaInNAs/GaAs SQW laser and MQW resonant-cavity enhanced photodetector have been achieved.

GaInNAs/GaAs quantum well lasers grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy

The growth of GaInNAs/GaAs quantum wells (QW) was investigated by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy. N was introduced by a dc-active plasma source. The effect of growth conditions such as on the N incorporation and photoluminescence (PL) intensity of the QWs has been studied. The PL peak intensity decreased and the PL fun width at half maximum increased with increasing N concentrations. The highest N concentration of 2.6% in a GaInNAs/GaAs QW was obtained, and corresponding to a PL peak wavelength of 1.57 mum at 10K. Rapid thermal annealing at 850degreesC significantly improved the crystal quality of the QWs. An optimum annealing time of 5s at 850degreesC was obtained. A GaInNAs/GaAs SQW laser with the emitting wavelength of 1.2 mum and a high characteristic temperature of 115 K was achieved at room temperature.

Growth and fabrication of high performance 980nm strained InGaAs quantum well lasers using novel hybrid material system of InGaAsP and AlGaAs

In this paper, we report on the design, growth and fabrication of 980nm strained InGaAs quantum well lasers employing novel material system of Al-free active region and AlGaAs cladding layers. The use of AlGaAs cladding instead of InGaP provides potential advantages in laser structure design, improvement of surface morphology and laser performance. We demonstrate an optimized broad-waveguide structure for obtaining high power 980nm quantum well lasers with low vertical beam divergence. The laser structure was grown by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, which exhibit a high internal quantum efficiency of similar to 90% and a low internal loss of 1.5-2.5 cm(-1). The broad-area and ridge-waveguide laser devices are both fabricated. For 100 mu m wide stripe lasers with cavity length of 800 mu m, a low threshold current of 170mA, a high slope efficiency of 1.0W/A and high output power of more than 3.5W are achieved. The temperature dependences of the threshold current and the emitting spectra demonstrate a very high characteristic temperature coefficient (T-o) of 200-250K and a wavelength shift coefficient of 0.34nm/degrees C. For 4 mu m-width ridge waveguide structure laser devices, a maximum output power of 340mW with GOD-free thermal roll-over characteristics is obtained.
