Abstract
The laser gain and current density at room temperature are analysed for disordered (interdiffusion induced) Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs single quantum well structures at a carrier injection level of 4*1012 cm-2. The results show that both the peak gain and current density remain about the same strength during the initial stages of disordering, and provide a bandwidth of 55 nm.
