Slope Efficiency and Voltage Reduction at High Current Densities in AlInGaAs Diode Lasers
The slope efficiency and drive voltage of broad area AlInGaAs laser diodes near 865 nm is observed to decrease significantly under quasi-CW pulsed operation at currents well above threshold, in a manner that cannot be explained by thermal effects or carrier leakage over heterojunction barriers. Simulations show that the slope efficiency reduction is explicable by increased free carrier absorption in the waveguide region. Empirical formulas are presented to represent these effects in a closed analytic form suitable for use in simulators for diode-pumped laser systems.
期刊介绍:
Papers published in the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics fall within the broad field of science and technology of quantum electronics of a device, subsystem, or system-oriented nature. Each issue is devoted to a specific topic within this broad spectrum. Announcements of the topical areas planned for future issues, along with deadlines for receipt of manuscripts, are published in this Journal and in the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics. Generally, the scope of manuscripts appropriate to this Journal is the same as that for the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics. Manuscripts are published that report original theoretical and/or experimental research results that advance the scientific and technological base of quantum electronics devices, systems, or applications. The Journal is dedicated toward publishing research results that advance the state of the art or add to the understanding of the generation, amplification, modulation, detection, waveguiding, or propagation characteristics of coherent electromagnetic radiation having sub-millimeter and shorter wavelengths. In order to be suitable for publication in this Journal, the content of manuscripts concerned with subject-related research must have a potential impact on advancing the technological base of quantum electronic devices, systems, and/or applications. Potential authors of subject-related research have the responsibility of pointing out this potential impact. System-oriented manuscripts must be concerned with systems that perform a function previously unavailable or that outperform previously established systems that did not use quantum electronic components or concepts. Tutorial and review papers are by invitation only.
