Abstract
We experimentally investigate the electrical and optical characteristics of conventional quantum well laser diodes and the quantum well laser diodes with slightly-doped tunnel junction N++GaAs/undoped-GaAs. The results show that the slightly-doped tunnel junction give significant role on the laser diodes performances in the InGaAs/GaAs quantum well material system. The TJ LD has a internal quantum efficiency of 21% and the loss is 6.9 em−1, the current threshold is 35 mA, both the lasers are operating at 1.06 μm, but the slightly-doped tunnel junction diode show nonlinear S-shaped current-voltage and broadband lasing characteristics. The results may also lead to the realization of more applications.
