ABSTRACTIt is found that the performance of self-assembled In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs multi-stack quantum dot lasers is sensitive to the GaAs spacer thickness between the dots. Reducing the spacer thickness from 30 nm to 10 nm leads to narrow photoluminescence linewidth, low threshold current, high characteristic temperature and high internal quantum efficiency. This behavior is attributed to inhomogeneous broadening caused by dot size fluctuation related to spacer thickness.

We have investigated light-current and spectral characteristics of 2-, 5- and 10-stack InAs / InGaAs / GaAs quantum dot (QD) ridge-waveguide lasers grown by MBE. Ultra-low threshold current of 1.43 mA was achieved for 2-stack QD laser. Simultaneous lasing at ground- and excited-states was observed. This effect is accounted for the finite time of carriers capture to the ground-state in QDs. Multi-stack QD structures enables to maintain continuous-wave (CW) ground-state lasing up to the current density of 100×Jth and to achieve the highest output power and efficiency ever recorded for any single-mode lasers of 1.3-μm-wavelength range.
