摘要
The stimulated emission (eta(i)(st)) of InGaAsP/InP separate-confinement double heterostructure lasers operating at lambda = 1.5-1.6 mum has been studied experimentally and theoretically. Laser heterostructures with a varied design of the waveguide layer were grown by MOCVD. The maximum internal quantum efficiency eta(i)(st) approximate to 97% was obtained in a structure with a double-step waveguide characterized by minimum leakage into the p-emitter above the generation threshold. The high value of eta(i)(st) is provided by low threshold and nonequilibrium carrier concentrations at the interface between the waveguide and p-emitter. The calculation yields eta(i)(st) values correlating well with the experimental data. (C) 2003 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
