Abstract :
The characteristic temperature of a quantum dot laser. T0 , has been calculated for the first time considering carrier recombination in the optical confinement layer and violation of the charge neutrality in QDs. T0 is shown to fall off profoundly with increasing temperature, which is in line with the available experimental results
