摘要
The Ga(AsBi) material system opens opportunities in the field of high efficiency infrared laser diodes. We report on the growth, structural investigations, and lasing properties of dilute bismide Ga(AsBi)/(AlGa)As single quantum well lasers with 2.2% Bi grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy on GaAs (001) substrates. Electrically injected laser operation at room temperature is achieved with a threshold current density of 1.56 kA/cm(2) at an emission wavelength of similar to 947 nm. These results from broad area devices show great promise for developing efficient IR laser diodes based on this emerging materials system. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
