Abstract
The threshold current density (J(th)) of blue-green CdZnSe/ZnSSe strai ned quantum well lasers is analysed using the laser theory established for III-V semiconductor lasers. Very good agreement between theory an d the reported experimental J(th) values is obtained over a wide tempe rature range from 77 to 273 K. The optimal Cd composition of a CdZnSe single quantum well active layer for obtaining a low J(th) value at ro om temperature is in the range 0.25-0.30.
