Wavelength Modified and Strained-Layer Quantum-Well Heterostructure and Superlattice Lasers (aluminum-Gallium - Arsenide)

Abstract

dc:description

The effects of wavelength modification and strained layers on quantum-well heterostructure (QWH) and superlattice (SL) lasers grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) are investigated. Size quantization, high pressure, and thermal annealing are the methods used to alter the output energy of these lasers. Stimulated emission in strained-layer QWH's and SL's is demonstrated, and the form of their failure is examined.
