  • Abstract
    Strained multiquantum-well InGaAs lasers had CW thresholds near 50 mA at 2 μm at 312 K. Abrupt decreases in characteristic temperatures (T0) occurred at 250 K for threshold current and 273 K for external quantum efficiency, indicating a highly temperature sensitive nonradiative recombination mechanism
