  • Abstract
    Broadband quantum dot superluminescent light emitting diodes (LEDs) are realised by focused ion beam etching an angled facet in an edge emitting dot-in-well laser diode structure. The device exhibits a large and flat emission spectral width up to 142 nm at 0.3 mW, maximum CW output power as high as 3 mW, and effective facet reflectivity <1times10-6
