Abstract
Since successful lasing has been reported for wurtzite (WZ) GaN and related materials, researchers are now interested in exploring the possibility of reducing the threshold current density (Jth). In this paper, we focus on this point by calculating the optical gain. We discuss the reduction in Jth on the c-plane, and we investigate the anisotropic strain effect on the (11~00) plane.
