Sv. Zaitsev et al., Multi-stacked InAs/InGaAs/InP quantum dot laser (J(th) = 11 A/cm(2), lambda = 1.9 mu m (77 K)), JPN J A P 1, 38(1B), 1999, pp. 601-604
Self-organized InAs quantum dots inserted in an (In, Ga)As matrix lattice m
atched to InP substrate were used as an active region of an injection laser
. Low threshold (11 A/cm(2)) lasing at 1.9 nm (77 K) via the quantum dot st
ates was realized. Temperature dependencies of the main laser parameters de
monstrate the important role of the nonradiative recombination. An analysis
of basic mechanisms of leakage shows that the Auger recombination share is
negligible.
