Abstract
A correlation was found between the variation of the threshold current density and carrier lifetime with acceptor concentration in the active layer. An injected electron concentration of 2.5¿3 à 1018/cm3, independent of the acceptor concentration in the active layer, was found at the lasing threshold.
