Abstract:Herein, 14 layer‐stacked quantum dots laser diodes (QD‐LDs) are fabricated with different thicknesses of embedding layers grown on InP(311)B substrate, and the lowest threshold current (Ith) of 21.6 mA is demonstrated in an as‐cleaved ridge‐structured QD‐LD with 13 nm‐thick embedding layers. Ith has the minimum value when the thickness is 13 nm. The factors unique to QDs grown on an InP(311)B substrate are assumed as the overlap integral of the wavefunction of electrons and holes and the decrease in gain owing… Show more
