AN InGaAs-GaAs-AIGaAs LATERALLY-COUPLED DISTRIBUTED FEEDBACK (LC-DFB) RIDGE LASER DIODE
نویسندگان
چکیده
Results are presented on laterally-coupled distributed feedback (LC-DFB) ridge laser diodes. The cpitaxial regrowth required in most distributed feedback devices is eliminated by using lateral evanescent coupling of the field to gratings etched along the sides of the ridge. A pulsed single-mode output power of 36 mW per facet was achieved at 937.5 nm with a sidemode suppression ratio (SMSR) of 30 dB for a 1.5 mm cavity. A pulsed threshold of 11 mA, slope efficiency of 0.46 mW/mA per facet, and temperature sensitivity of 0.63 ~°C were measured for a 250 ~m cavity LC-DFB.

Data are presented showing that, besides the improvement in carrier collection, it is advantageous to locate strain-matching auxiliary InGaAs layers @quantum wells ~QWs!# within tunneling distance of a single-quantum-dot ~QD! layer of an AlGaAs–GaAs–InGaAs–InAs QD heterostructure laser to realize also smaller size QDs of greater density and uniformity. The QD density is changed from 2310/cm for...

Strained InGaAS/AIGaAS quantum well (QW) lasers operating at 0.98 jim are currently of great interest due to their suitability for pumping erbium-doped fiber amplifiers. They are reported to yield a lower noise figure and higher gain coefficient than the 1 .48 jim InGaAsflnP pump lasers as well as 0.8 p.m A1GaAS/GaAS pump lasers. In addition, the InGa.AS/AIGaAS strained QW lasers have lower thr...
