摘要
A method for overgrowing laser stripe structures with high-ohmic indium phosphide to bound the domain of current flow and to improve heat dissipation is presented. Overgrowing was performed using metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition. It is shown that the method makes it possible to obtain high-quality epitaxial layers and defectless overgrowth boundaries without special processing of the structures after photolithography. All the InP layers were n-conductive, the specific resistance was ρ ∼ 5 × 104 Ω cm, and the carrier concentration was n ∼ 5 × 1010 cm−3. The characteristics of the grown InP layers permit one to obtain high-quality quantum-cascade lasers.
