Abstract :
Self-organised InAs quantum dots inserted in an (In,Ga)As matrix lattice matched to an InP substrate are used as an active region in the injection laser. Low threshold (11.4 A/cm2) lasing at 1.894 μm (77 K) via the states of the quantum dots is obtained. A material gain of the order of 104 cm-1 is estimated
