Enhanced Modulation and Noise Characteristics in 1.55 µm QD Lasers using Additional Optical Pumping
The modulation response, relative intensity noise (RIN) and frequency noise (FN) characteristics of quantum dot (QD) lasers are investigated theoretically in the presence of an external optical beam. Using small signal analysis of the rate equations for carriers and photons, it is demonstrated that by injecting excess carriers into the QDs excited state through optical pumping, the modulation r...

An InGaAsN single-layer quantum dot ~QD! laser structure was grown on GaAs substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition ~MOCVD!. The ridge-waveguide edge emitting laser diodes ~LD! were fabricated and characterized. We demonstrate room-temperature operation of InGaAsN QD lasers with an emission wavelength of 1078 nm. Electroluminescence spectra as a function of injection current showed ...

متن کاملInAs/InP(100) quantum dot laser with high wavelength stability
Introduction: The lasing wavelength of a semiconductor laser inevitably changes with varying the operation temperature, which is, however, not desirable for applications requiring specific and stable light wavelength. Thus, laser diodes with wavelength insensitive to temperature are fascinating and can drastically ease the critical requirements on precise temperature control. The quantum dot (Q...
