Abstract:
High efficiency Al-free InGaAs/InGaAsP/InGaP lasers emitting at 980nm are fabricated by MOCVD. The lasers exhibit a high internal quantum efficiency of 95 % and a low internal loss of 1.8 cm-1. Low threshold current density of 190A/cm2 and high slope efficiency of 1.06W/A are obtained by lasers with 800μm cavitylength. A high characteristic temperature 210C is also obtained by replacing the GaAs barrier with high-bandgap InGaAsP barrier. The measured vertical and parallel divergence angle are 40° and 8°, respectively.
