CHARACTERIZATION OF InGaN/GaN-BASED MULTI-QUANTUM WELL DISTRIBUTED FEEDBACK LASERS
1998
We present a device fabrication technology and measurement results of both optically pumped and electrically injected InGaN/GaN-based distributed feedback (DFB) lasers operated at room temperature. For the optically pumped DFB laser, we demonstrate a complex coupling scheme for the first time, whereas the electrically injected device is based on normal index coupling. Threshold currents as low as 1.1 A were observed in 500 μm long and 10 μm wide devices. The 3 rd order grating providing feedback was defined holographically and dry-etched into the upper waveguiding layer by chemically-assisted ion beam etching. Even when operating these lasers considerably above threshold, a spectrally narrow emission (3.5 A) at wavelengths around 400 nm was seen.
