T. Kojima et al., Temperature dependence of internal quantum efficiency of 20-nm-wide GaInAsP/InP compressively-strained quantum-wire lasers, JPN J A P 1, 38(1B), 1999, pp. 585-588
We evaluated the temperature dependence of the internal quantum efficiency
of 1.5-mu m-wavelength GaInAsP/InP compressively-strained 20-nm-wide quantu
m-wire lasers from the cavity length dependence of the differential quantum
efficiency. As a result, high internal quantum efficiency eta(i) similar t
o 1.0 was obtained at T < 200 K, which decreased with an increase in temper
ature.
