Abstract
Carrier distribution in multiple quantum wells is studied. Nonuniform carrier distribution is evidenced by the lasing characteristics of laser diodes with multiple quantum wells of different widths. It is shown that the well sequence significantly influences the threshold current and the characteristic temperature owing to nonuniform carrier distribution
