摘要
Bipolar cascade lasers with quantum wells (QWs) in tunnel junctions are proposed and demonstrated with emission wavelength near 2 mum based on an InGaAs/InP material system. These bipolar cascade lasers with QW tunnel junctions exhibited superior performance characteristics such as significantly reduced threshold voltage, increased quantum efficiency (>100%) and operation temperature over similar lasers without a QW in the tunnel junction. These broad-area lasers operated at temperatures up to 240 K in continuous wave mode and up to room temperature in pulsed mode. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
