Measurement of optical gain, effective group index and linewidth enhancement factor in 1.3 µm dilute nitride double-quantum-well lasers

Abstract: The net modal gain, effective group index and linewidth enhancement factor in edge-emitting InGaAsN/GaAs lasers have been determined as a function of both temperature and injection current from experimental amplified spontaneous emission spectra. The shift of the peak gain with temperature was found to be 0.49nm/K. Values of effective group index between 3.52-3.59 were measured, suggesting a relatively high refractive index of 3.75 for the dilute nitride quantum well. Linewidth enhancement factor values betwee… Show more

“…The corresponding field decay rate κ is half the intensity decay rate, as per (A1.6), with c the vacuum speed of light and n g the group index. Using a group index n g value of 3.6 from [38] then gives κ as 68. The electron recombination lifetime γ was taken as 1 ns −1 [7].…”

“…Thus, their behavior is sensitive to selfheating, and it is important to validate the parameters used in the thermal model. As the rise in internal temperature usually causes a red-shift in emission wavelength above threshold [45]- [47], this can often be used to determine the thermal resistivity of the laser diode package. (Frequency-stabilized lasers are an exception.)…”

“…1, next we characterize the devices using Impedance Spectroscopy (IS), steady state electrical measurements and transient optoelectronic techniques. We then extend our electro-optical device model 12 to simulate carrier transport over heterojunctions [13][14][15] and optical propagation/carrier generation in multilayered structures. Finally using a combination of characterization and modeling we show that the increased efficiency is due to optical generation of excitons within the polymer layer and subsequent charge separation at the polymer:fullerene interface.…”
