T. Terakado et al., SUBMILLIAMP THRESHOLD 1.3-MU-M STRAINED MQW LASERS WITH NOVEL P-SUBSTRATE BURIED-HETEROSTRUCTURE GROWN BY MOVPE USING TBA AND TBP, Electronics Letters, 31(25), 1995, pp. 2182-2184
An extremely low 0.4mA threshold current has been achieved for novel c
urrent-blocking 1.3 mu m strained MQW laser diodes. These devices are
grown by MOVPE using tertiarybutylarsine (TBA) and tertiarybutylphosph
ine (TBP) precursors. The lowest threshold currents of 0.4 and 3.0mA w
ere obtained at 20 and 85 degrees C, respectively, for a 150 mu m-long
95%/98%-coated device.
