  • Abstract
    InGaAs/GaAs strained quantum well lasers on both GaP and exact Si (001) via an epitaxial GaP/Si template are developed. Ridge lasers of length 1.2 mm and width 80 μm on GaP and GaP/Si templates show threshold current densities of 1.6 and 5.6 kA/cm2, respectively, in pulsed mode at room temperature. The emission wavelength of 1043 nm for lasers on GaP/Si was red shifted from 1030 nm for lasers on GaP and GaAs, due to the thermal mismatch with the Si substrate.
