Abstract

The electroluminescence (EL) spectra of InAs quantum dot (QD) lasers with the InAlGaAs-InAlAs-InP (001) material system were examined by increasing the injection current above the threshold in the pulsed mode. The lasing emissions of the QD lasers with a cavity length of 1 mm showed multi-modes around 1.61 μm under pulsed operation. Those modes were attributed to the inhomogeneously-broadened gain spectra resulting from the presence of non-interacting QDs with different sizes. The carrier behavior between the subsets of the non-interacting QDs in the lasers was also examined by observing the EL spectra as a function of temperature under continuous-wave conditions.
