  • Abstract
    Based on the indium content dependence of optical gain in a GaInN multiquantum well (MQW) structure, room-temperature continuous-wave operation of GaInN MQW laser diodes is demonstrated. Amplified spontaneous emission spectra for Ga1-xInyN (x=0.07 0.11) MQWs suggest that lower indium content leads to smaller bandgap inhomogeneity and an improvement in the laser performance. Ga0.93 In0.07N MQW laser diodes were operated with a threshold current density of 11 kAcm2
