摘要
The threshold current of 1.3 mum GaInNAs lasers increases by similar to 30% up to a pressure of 1GPa compared with a decrease of similar to 15% for Auger-dominated InGaAsP devices. indicating that direct band-to-band Auger recombination is not important in these materials. The lasing energy varies sub-linearly with pressure, indicative of the increasing interaction of the N-level with the conduction band.
