Abstract
We report a highly luminescent crescent-shaped tensile-strained GaAsP/ AlGaAs quantum wire (QWR) laser structure on 3 mu m periodic V-grooves grown by low-pressure (100 Torr) metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MO VPE). Photoluminescence studies show that carriers are efficiently cap tured from neighboring quantum well layers (QWLs) into QWRs, which giv e efficient luminescence. The QWR light emitting diode (LED) shows pol arization insensitivity resulting from the tensile strain properties o f the QWR structure.
