Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that the combination of strain and p-doping leads to substantial performance enhancements in the high-speed modulation characteristics of GaAs-based MQW lasers. Here, we investigate for the first time, both theoretically and experimentally, the improvements in the linewidth enhancement factor, α, resulting from the simultaneous addition of strain and p-doping in GaAs-based MQW lasers
