P. Rees et al., HIGH-TEMPERATURE GAIN MEASUREMENTS IN OPTICALLY PUMPED ZNCDSE-ZNSE QUANTUM-WELLS, IEE proceedings. Optoelectronics, 143(1), 1996, pp. 110-112
The authors have measured gain spectra in an optically pumped Zn0.72Cd
0.28Se-ZnSe multiple quantum well sample. The gain was calculated incl
uding many-body affects such as spectral broadening and Coulomb enhanc
ement. Excellent agreement between model and experiment is found, alth
ough the high carrier temperature above threshold reduces the expected
Coulomb enhancement of the gain in II-VI quantum well lasers.
