Ultra-low threshold current density quantum dot lasers using the dots-in-a-well (DWELL) structure
Quantum dots laser diodes using the dots-in-a-well (DWELL) structure (InAs dots in an InGaAs quantum wells) have exhibited significant recent progress. With a single InAs dot layer in Inoi5Gao.8sAs quantum well, threshold current densities are as low as 26 A cm2 at 1 .25 xm. Quantum dot laser threshold current densities are now lower than any other reported semiconductor laser. In this work, th...
متن کاملExtremely low room-temperature threshold current density diode lasers using InAs dots in In0.15Ga0.85As quantum well
Introduction: It has been predicted that the threshold current density of quantum dot lasers should be lower than that of quantum well lasers due to the reduction of density of states [1]. In particular, efforts have been made in the past few years to reduce the threshold current density of quantum dot lasers on GaAs substrates [2, 3]. A recently developed approach is to put the InAs dots in a ...
متن کاملExciton condensate in semiconductor quantum well structures.
We propose that the exciton condensate may form in a well-controlled way in appropriately arranged semiconductor quantum well structures. The mean-field theory of Keldysh and Kopaev, exact in both the high density and the low density limits, is solved numerically to illustrate our proposal. The electron-hole pairing gap and the excitation spectrum of the exciton condensate are obtained. The ene...
متن کاملPower Supply and Current Modulation Circuits for Semiconductor Lasers
Design and construction of a stable current supply with protection circuits are described. The reported circuit provides a high-stable and high-level current variable from 0.5-1.2 A with the protect ion circuits to prevent over load current, voltage and off-range temperature operation. A detailed analysis of the circuit parameters is given and the time behaviors of the load voltage/current and ...
