On the temperature sensitivity of semiconductor lasers
نویسنده
چکیده
The temperature dependence of below-threshold emission from multiple quantum well semiconductor lasers is well characterized by a power law, in excellent agreement with Landau-Ginzburg theory of second-order phase transitions. We thereby show that it is the temperature dependence of net gain and not that of nonradiative recombination which primarily determines temperature sensitivity of threshold in long-wavelength injection lasers.

Improving the Thermal Characteristics of Semiconductor Lasers Using a New Asymmetric Waveguide Structure
Self-heating leads to a temperature rise of the laser diode and limits the output power and efficiency due to increased loss and decreased differential gain. To control device self-heating, it is required to design the laser structure with a low optical loss, while the heat flux must spread out of the device efficiently. In this study, a new asymmetric waveguide design is proposed and th...
