Abstract :
Exciton-polariton laser diodes are realized by integrating four InGaAs quantum wells in high quality factor doped distributed Bragg reflector microcavities. Efficient current injection into the active region allow to preserve the strong coupling regime between excitons and photons across the threshold of polariton lasing.
