Abstract :
We investigated the effect of n-type modulation doping as well as growth temperature on the threshold current density of 1.3 μm InAsP strained MQW lasers grown by gas-source MBE (GSMBE) for the first time and have obtained threshold current density as low as 250 A/cm2 for 1200 μm long devices
