摘要
We report on the InAs quantum dot lasers grown by gas source molecular-beam epitaxy, respectively, on GaAs and InP substrates. Room temperature continuous-wave operation was achieved for both InAs/GaAs and InAs/InP quantum dot lasers, respectively, at 1.10 mu m and 1.54-1.70 mu m wavelength region. More than 50 mW optical power was collected from one facet of the InAs/GaAs quantum dot lasers at 20 degrees C, while for InAs/InP quantum dot lasers the maximum output power was measured as 30 mW. For InAs/InP material system, by increasing the layer thickness of deposited InAs from 3.0 to 3.5 monolayers, the lasing wavelength can be extended from 1.5-1.6 mu m to 1.6-1.7 mu m. Moreover, a tunable quantum dot external cavity laser was demonstrated, utilizing the broad gain profile of InAs quantum dots. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
