Abstract

Gallium arsenide Laser stability Quantum dot lasers Radiative recombination Surface emitting lasers Temperature dependence Temperature sensors Thermal stability Threshold current Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers
In spite of the almost ideal variation of the radiative current of 1.3 mum GaAsSb/GaAs-based lasers, the threshold current, J th , is high due to non-radiative recombination accounting for 90% J th near room temperature. This also gives rise to low T 0 values ~60 K close to room temperature, similar to that for InGaAsP/InP
