  • Abstract
    650 nm band tensile strained GaInAsP/AlGaInP MQW laser diodes (LDs) were fabricated for the first time. It was found that, compared with compressive strained GaInP MQW LDs, tensile strained GaInAsP MQW LDs have the advantage of low-threshold currents. Threshold currents (4.5 mA at 20°C, 7.9 mA at 60°C), which are the lowest yet reported for 650 nm band edge emitting lasers, were demonstrated using a self-aligned stepped substrate (S3) laser structure
