Abstract:Semiconductor diode lasers are now widely used in many applications such as optical memories (e.g. compact-disk players) and fiber-optic communications. Recently, we discovered that a liquid contact made to standard diode laser material can be used to obtain light emission resulting from electron-hole recombination in the "active" layer buried in the multilayer epitaxial structure. Since the active layer is responsible for light amplification in diode lasers made from such material, this liquid contact lumines… Show more
