摘要：
We have systematically studied the well number dependence of the linewidth enhancement factor in strained quantum-well (QW) lasers and have demonstrated experimentally that the linewidth enhancement factor can be reduced from similar to 9.4 to similar to 2.0 by increasing the number of compressively strained QW's from 2 to 8. This behavior is primarily due to an increase in the differential gain with the number of QW's.
