摘要
Through optimal thermal annealing of the active region of a 1.3 mum GaInNAs/GaAs single-quantum-well laser diode, we obtained a characteristic temperature (T-0) of 215 K under pulsed operation from 20 degreesC to 80 degreesC. This is the highest yet reported value for a 1.3-mum semiconductor laser. Even under continuous-wave operation, the T-0 was as high as 147 K. The lasing-wavelength change with temperature was as small as 0.39 nm/degreesC, indicating the excellent stability for aGaInNAs laser diode with T-0 of over 200 K. These results demonstrate that GaInNAs is a promising material for fabricating long-wavelength laser diodes used for optical-fiber communications.
