“…Ground-state lasing at RT, high internal quantum efficiency, and low threshold current density have already been demonstrated in both stacked-layer [2]- [5] and single-layer QD lasers [6], [7]. Efficient [8] and narrow-linewidth [9] RT emission at 1.3-m wavelength has been achieved recently, and the first QD lasers operating in this wavelength region are already reported [10]- [13]. Other properties, like differential gain, small signal modulation bandwidth, and alpha parameter, are still under discussion in the comparison between the expected superior performances and the measured values.…”
