This letter reports room-temperature electrically pumped narrow-linewidth GaN-on-Si laser diodes. Unlike conventional distributed Bragg feedback laser diodes with hundreds of gratings, we employed only a few precisely defined slot gratings to narrow the linewidth and mitigate the negative effects of grating fabrication on the device performance. The slot gratings were incorporated into the ridge of conventional Fabry-Pérot cavity laser diodes. A subsequent wet etching in a tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide solution not only effectively removed the damages induced by the dry etching, but also converted the rough and tilted slot sidewalls into smooth and vertical ones. As a result, the threshold current was reduced by over 20%, and the reverse leakage current was decreased by over three orders of magnitude. Therefore, the room-temperature electrically pumped narrow-linewidth GaN-on-Si laser diode has been successfully demonstrated.

The continuous-wave (CW) operation of InGaN multi-quantum-well-structure laser diodes (LDs) was demonstrated at room temperature (RT) with a lifetime of 35 hours. The threshold current and the voltage of the LDs were 80 mA and 5.5 V, respectively. The threshold current density was 3.6 kA/cm2. When the temperature of the LDs was varied, large mode hopping of the emission wavelength was observed. The carrier lifetime and the threshold carrier density were estimated to be 2-10 ns and 1-2 × 1020/cm3, respectively. From the measurements of gain spectra and an external differential quantum efficiency dependence on the cavity length, the differential gain coefficient, the transparent carrier density, threshold gain and internal loss were estimated to be 5.8×10−17 cm2, 9.3×1019 cm−3, 5200 cm−1 and 43 cm−1, respectively.

Abstract In this work, we reported the room-temperature continuous-wave operation of 6.0 W GaN-based blue laser diode (LD), and its stimulated emission wavelength is around 442 nm. The GaN-based high power blue LD is grown on a c-plane GaN substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and the width and length of the ridge waveguide structure are 30 and 1200 μm, respectively. The threshold current is about 400 mA, and corresponding threshold current density is 1.1 kA/cm2.

GaN-based short wavelength laser diodes are the most promising key device for a digital versatile disk. We have been improving the important points of the laser diodes in terms of optical guiding layers, mirror facets. The continuous wave laser irradiation at room temperature could be achieved successfully by reducing the threshold current to 60 mA (4 kA/cm2). We have tried to apply the multi low temperature buffer layers to the laser diodes for the first time to reduce the crystal defects.

Edge-emitting laser diodes (LDs) were fabricated on a reduced dislocation density epitaxial lateral overgrown (ELO) wing of a semipolar {202̅1} GaN substrate, termed an ELO wing LD. Two types of facet feasibility studies were conducted: (1) “handmade” facets, wherein lifted-off ELO wing LDs were cleaved manually, and (2) facets formed on wafers through reactive ion etching (RIE). Pulsed operation electrical and optical measurements confirmed the laser action in the RIE facet LDs with a threshold current of ~19 kAcm−2 and maximum light output power of 20 mW from a single uncoated facet. Handmade facet devices showed spontaneous, LED-like emission, confirming device layers remain intact after mechanical liftoff.
